Sweet and soft fruity-floral odor, reminiscent of Pctitgrain or Mandarin-petitgrain oils.
Excellent tenacity.
Grape-like (Concord type), winey and sweet
taste of considerable power.
Benzoic acid, 2-(methylamino)-, ethyl ester has found a little usc in perfume
compositions as a variant of the conventional
"Orangcblossom"-type of Anthranilates. It
blends excellently with the Citrus oils, in
Fougere themes, in Lavender fantasy compositions, in Magnolia and Honeysuckle and many
other heavy floral bases.
It has very little
tendency to form strong-colored condensation products with aldchydcs, except for the
fact that most "Di-anthranilates" contain a
significant proportion of the Mono-ester,
which causes strong coloration with aldehydes.
Yellowish solid; fruity mandarin-type aroma.
ChEBI: Ethyl N-methylanthranilate is a benzoate ester.
Benzoic acid, 2-(methylamino)-, ethyl ester can be produced from N-Mcthylanthranilic acid and
Ethyl alcohol, by azcotropic type csterification; or by Methylation of Ethyl anthranilate with
Dimethyl sulfate.
Medium strength odor, fruity type.
