Isovaleric acid, also known as 3-methylbutanoic acid or β-methylbutyric acid, is a branched-chain alkyl carboxylic acid with the chemical formula (CH 3) 2 CHCH 2 CO 2 H. It is classified as a short-chain fatty acid. Like other low-molecular-weight carboxylic acids, it has an unpleasant odor. The compound occurs naturally and can be found in ...
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.
Methyl butyrate, also known under the systematic name methyl butanoate, is the methyl ester of butyric acid. Like most esters, it has a fruity odor, in this case resembling apples or pineapples. [2] At room temperature, it is a colorless liquid with low solubility in water, upon which it floats to form an oily layer.
3-Mercapto-3-methylbutan-1-ol, also known as MMB, is a common odorant found in food and cat urine. The aromas ascribed to MMB include catty, [3] roasty, broth-like, meaty, and savory, [4] or similar to cooked leeks. [5] MMB is an organosulfur compound with the formula C 5 H 12 OS.
Methyl butyrate, the methyl ester of butyric acid; 2-Methylbutyrate, the conjugate base of 2-methylbutyric acid (2-methylbutanoic acid)
Certain types of fats can also be helpful. Nuts, seeds and fatty fish are good sources of omega-3 fatty acids—healthy fats that have been shown to help reduce inflammation and support overall ...
2-Methylbutanoic acid, also known as 2-methylbutyric acid is a branched-chain alkyl carboxylic acid with the chemical formula CH 3 CH 2 CH(CH 3)CO 2 H, classified as a short-chain fatty acid. It exists in two enantiomeric forms, ( R )- and ( S )-2-methylbutanoic acid.
Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE), also known as tert-butyl methyl ether, is an organic compound with a structural formula (CH 3) 3 COCH 3.MTBE is a volatile, flammable, and colorless liquid that is sparingly soluble in water. [1]
