PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
description
Methyl 3-phenylpropanoate is a methyl ester resulting from the formal condensation of the carboxy group of 3-phenylpropionic acid with methanol. It has a role as a volatile oil component, a flavouring agent and a human metabolite. It is a methyl ester and a member of benzenes. It is functionally related to a 3-phenylpropionic acid.
