Chemical Properties

CLEAR COLOURLESS LIQUID

Chemical Properties

2-Propenyl Hexanoate has been shown to occur in pineapple. It has a typical pineapple odor and is used in, for example, pineapple flavors.

Chemical Properties

A colorless liquid with fruity sweet, pineapple-like taste and fruit-like aroma (pineapple)

Uses

Allyl Hexanoate is a liquid flavoring agent with a strong pineapple odor and pale yellow color. it is practically insoluble in propylene glycol and miscible with alcohol, most fixed oils, and mineral oil. it is obtained by chemical synthesis. it can be used alone or in com- bination with other flavoring substances or adjuvants. it is also termed allyl caproate.

Preparation

By esterification of n-caproic acid with allyl alcohol in the presence of concentrated H2SO4 or of naphthalene-β-sulfonic acid in benzene under a nitrogen blanket

Taste threshold values

Taste characteristics at 10 ppm: sweet, fresh, juicy, pineapple and fruity

Safety Profile

Poison by ingestion and skin contact. Mutation data reported. An irritant to human skin. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes. See also ALLYL COMPOUNDS and ESTERS
