Description and Uses

Isoeugenyl acetate has a weak, rose-carnation, somewhat spicy odor and an initially burning, then sweet taste. Can be prepared from isoeugenol and acetic acid by esterification.

Isoeugenyl acetate is a useful building block extracted from the essential oils of Alpinia galanga and Zingiber officinale. Isoeugenyl acetate has antibacterial properties towards B. subtilis, E. coli and S. aureus. Useful in floral perfume compositions, as a sweetener in herbaceous fragrances, and as a fixative in carnation perfumes. May cause discoloration in white soaps. In flavors for berry, fruit and spice compositions. Concentrations from 0.4 to 17 ppm. in finished products. Up to 100 ppm in chewing gums.
