Description and Uses

Nonyl acetate has a floral, fruity (mushroom-gardenia) odor and a corresponding flavor on dilution. It has a bitter taste when concentrated. It is prepared by direct esterification of n-nonyl alcohol with acetic acid.

Nonyl acetate finds some use in flavor compositions for imitation Apricot, Peach, Lemon and other Citrus types, fruit complexes, etc. Its sweet-fruity taste is accompanied by a "peel"-like freshness, and the material is quite powerful. Concentrations vary from 1 to 3 ppm in the finished product.
