Isobutyl formate (2-methylpropyl methanoate) is an organic ester with the chemical formula C 5 H 10 O 2. It is formed by the Fischer esterification of isobutanol with formic acid, with the aid of an acid catalyst. It is used as a flavor and fragrance ingredient because of its odor which is sweet, ethereal, and slightly fruity. [2] [3]
In humans, valeric acid is a minor product [17] of the gut microbiome and can also be produced by metabolism of its esters found in food. [18] The restoration of levels of this acid in the gut has been suggested as the mechanism that results in control of Clostridioides difficile infection after fecal microbiota transplant. [19]
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).
