Ethyl butyrate, also known as ethyl butanoate, or butyric ether, is an ester with the chemical formula CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 COOCH 2 CH 3. It is soluble in propylene glycol, paraffin oil, and kerosene. It has a fruity odor, similar to pineapple, and is a key ingredient used as a flavor enhancer in processed orange juices. [1]
The butyrate or butanoate ion, C 3 H 7 COO −, is the conjugate base of butyric acid. It is the form found in biological systems at physiological pH . A butyric (or butanoic) compound is a carboxylate salt or ester of butyric acid.
In October 2018 a class action lawsuit was filed by Chicago law firm Beaumont Costales regarding the "all natural" branding, [30] claiming that LaCroix uses synthetic ingredients including ethyl butanoate, limonene and linalool propionate. [31] [32] [33] The company responded that "all the flavor essences in LaCroix are natural."
Butyl butyrate, or butyl butanoate, is an organic compound that is an ester formed by the condensation of butyric acid and n-butanol. It is a clear, colorless liquid that is insoluble in water, but miscible with ethanol and diethyl ether. Its refractive index is 1.406 at 20 °C.
An ester of carboxylic acid.R stands for any group (organic or inorganic) and R′ stands for organyl group.. In chemistry, an ester is a compound derived from an acid (organic or inorganic) in which the hydrogen atom (H) of at least one acidic hydroxyl group (−OH) of that acid is replaced by an organyl group (−R).
Amyl acetate (pentyl acetate) is an organic compound and an ester with the chemical formula CH 3 COO[CH 2] 4 CH 3 and the molecular weight 130.19 g/mol. It is colorless and has a scent similar to bananas [3] [4] and apples. [5]
The ABE fermentation pathway generally proceeds in two phases. In the initial acidogenesis phase, the cells grow exponentially and accumulate acetate and butyrate. The low pH along with other factors then trigger a metabolic shift to the solventogenesis phase, in which acetate and butyrate are used to produce the solvents. [4]
n-Butyl acetate is an organic compound with the formula CH 3 CO 2 (CH 2) 3 CH 3.A colorless, flammable liquid, it is the ester derived from n-butanol and acetic acid.It is found in many types of fruit, where it imparts characteristic flavors and has a sweet smell of banana or apple.
