NONYL ACETATE Usage And Synthesis
Description 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.
Chemical Properties Nonyl acetate has a floral, fruity (mushroom–gardenia) odor and a corresponding flavor on dilution. It has a bitter taste when concentrated.
Chemical Properties Colorless liquid; strong pungent odor. Soluble in four volumes of 70% alcohol, flash p 155F (68.3C), several isomers exist. Combustible.
Occurrence Reported found in apple, citrus peel oils and juices, grapes, melon, Gruyere cheese, milk, beer and pepino fruit (Solanum muricatum).
Uses In perfumery.
Definition ChEBI: The acetate ester of nonan-1-ol.
Preparation By direct esterification of n-nonyl alcohol with acetic acid.
Aroma threshold values Detection: 57 to 600 ppb; aroma characteristics at 1.0%: waxy citrus, earthy mushroom, creamy milk, estry with ripe apple pulp notes.
Taste threshold values Taste characteristics at 5 ppm: waxy, stale milk, earthy mushroom, slightly metallic with cheesy nuances.
General Description Colorless liquid with a pungent odor of mushrooms. Less dense than water and insoluble in water. Hence floats on water.
Air & Water Reactions Insoluble in water.
Reactivity Profile NONYL ACETATE is an ester. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides. Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating vapors and toxic gases, such as carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, may be formed when involved in fire [USCG, 1999].
Fire Hazard Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating vapors and toxic gases, such as carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, may be formed when involved in fire.
Safety Profile Combustible liquid. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.
