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]
If it connects at one of the two terminal carbon atoms, it is normal butyl or n-butyl: −CH 2 −CH 2 −CH 2 −CH 3 (preferred IUPAC name: butyl) If it connects at one of the non-terminal (internal) carbon atoms, it is secondary butyl or sec-butyl: −CH(CH 3)−CH 2 −CH 3 (preferred IUPAC name: butan-2-yl)
To avoid long and tedious names in normal communication, the official IUPAC naming recommendations are not always followed in practice, except when it is necessary to give an unambiguous and absolute definition to a compound. IUPAC names can sometimes be simpler than older names, as with ethanol, instead of ethyl alcohol. For relatively simple ...

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.
Pentyl butyrate, also known as pentyl butanoate or amyl butyrate, is an ester that is formed when pentanol is reacted with butyric acid, [1] usually in the presence of sulfuric acid as a catalyst. This ester has a smell reminiscent of pear or apricot .
