The esters of propionic acid have fruit-like odors and are sometimes used as solvents or artificial flavorings. [15] In biogas plants, propionic acid is a common intermediate product, which is formed by fermentation with propionic acid bacteria. Its degradation in anaerobic environments (e.g. biogas plants) requires the activity of complex ...

Ibuprofen was derived from propionic acid by the research arm of Boots Group during the 1960s. [73] The name is derived from the 3 functional groups: isobutyl (ibu) propionic acid (pro) phenyl (fen). [74] Its discovery was the result of research during the 1950s and 1960s to find a safer alternative to aspirin.
