Description and Uses
Isopropyl propionate has a bittersweet taste reminiscent of plum. May be synthesized by direct esterification in benzene solution and in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid.
Isopropyl propionate is probably not used in perfumes. It finds some use in flavor compositions, mainly in fruit complexes, “tutti-frutti’’-types, Rum imitation, etc. It produces great “lift” to the flavor and is quite compatible with most fruit flavors. The concentration used is about 10 to 50 ppm in the finished product.
