Description and Uses

Isoamyl salicylate has a characteristic aromatic, strong herbaceous, persistent odor and a bittersweet taste reminiscent of strawberry. May be prepared by esterification of salicylic acid with the isomeric amyl alcohols obtained from fusel oil and other sources.

Isoamyl o-hydroxybenzoate is used in perfumery and soaps. Extensively used in floral and non-floral perfume types: Very often in Carnation, Hyacinth, Orchid, Tretle, and almost inevitably in Fougere types. Its low cost and worldwide availability makes it one of the most important perfume chemicals. Occasionally used in "Root Beer" type flavors and certain Fruit flavors. Concentra- tion is usually mere traces (a few ppm in finished consumer product).
