Aroma threshold values |
Detection: 650 ppb |
Taste threshold values |
Taste characteristics at 10 ppm: sweet, fruity, honey, cocoa, apple and woody |
Safety Profile |
Moderately toxic by ingestion. Combustible liquid. Mutation data reported. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes. See also ESTERS. |
Purification Methods |
Shake the ester with saturated aqueous Na2CO3 (three times), aqueous 50% CaCl2 (twice) and saturated aqueous NaCl (twice). Dry with CaCl2 and distil it under reduced pressure. [Beilstein 9 H 434, 9 IV 1618.] |
