L-MENTHYL ACETATE Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Chemical Properties

Colorless liquid; menthol-like odor.Slightly soluble in water; miscible with alcohol and ether. Combustible.

Chemical Properties

l-Menthyl acetate has a fresh odor similar to mint and rose (on dilution). It has a characteristic, fresh, pungent flavor, different from menthol (being much milder). It has a cool mouthfeel with only a trace of mint flavor.

Occurrence

Reported as a normal constituent of peppermint oil in varying amounts, depending on the source; the synthetic product is optically levorotatory; the commercial product is optically inactive.

Uses

L-Menthyl Acetate is a component of essential oils extracted from natural sources.

Uses

Perfumery, flavoring.

Preparation

By reacting acetic anhydride with menthol in the presence of anhydrous sodium acetate.

Definition

ChEBI: (+/-)-Menthyl acetate is a p-menthane monoterpenoid.

Taste threshold values

Taste characteristics at 10 ppm: tea-like, cooling and fruity

Biochem/physiol Actions

Taste at 25 ppm

Safety Profile

Mildly toxic by ingestion. A skin irritant. Combustible liquid. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.
