Description and Uses

α-Methylbenzyl acetate has an intensive green odor suggestive of gardenia with a bitter, acrid taste, interesting on dilution. May be prepared by acetylation of methyl phenyl carbinol; from benzaldehyde by reacting with magnesium methyl bromide and subsequent acetylation; from 1-bromoethylbenzene and silver acetate in acetic acid.

Styralyl Acetate is a freshening compound with Alkoxylated Phenols.
Styralyl acetate finds extensive use in flavor compositions, particularly the "sharp"-fruity types, Pineapple, Apricot, Gooseberry, Apple, but also in Plum, Peach and many berry or fruit complexes.
The concentration is about 1 to 30 ppm in the finished product.
