What is Phenethyl phenylacetate?
Chemical properties
Colorless to pale yellow liquid or crystalline solid
Chemical properties
Phenylethyl Phenylacetate has been identified in, for example, the flower concrete of Michelia champaca L. It is a colorless liquid or in the form of crystals (mp 26.5°C), which have a heavy, sweet, rose or hyacinth odor and a distinct honey note. The ester is used particularly in floral fragrance compositions and as a fixative.
Chemical properties
Phenethyl phenylacetate has a heavy, sweet, floral and balsamic odor, somewhat rosy and a sweet, honey-like flavor.
Occurrence
Has apparently not been reported to occur in nature.
The Uses of Phenethyl phenylacetate
Phenethyl Phenylacetate is a flavoring agent that is a colorless or pale yellow liquid, with an odor resembling roses and hyacinth, which becomes solid at <26°c (78.8°f). it is soluble in alcohol, insol- uble in water. it is obtained by chemical synthesis.
The Uses of Phenethyl phenylacetate
2-Phenylethyl 2-Phenylacetate is an antimicrobial spray applied freshening compounds for fabric.
Preparation
By esterification of phenylacetic acid with phenethyl alcohol in the presence of H2SO4; also by direct esterification in the presence of gaseous HCl.
Definition
ChEBI: Phenethyl phenylacetate is a member of benzenes.
Taste threshold values
Taste characteristics at 25 ppm: honey, floral, green, rose, cocoa, hay and tropical body.
