Butyl levulinate Usage And Synthesis
Aroma
Sweet and slightly pungent-caramellic odor with fruity undertones. Overall warm and almost herbaceous with some similarity to Valerolactone. Mild, sweet, caramellic-herbaceous taste.
Chemical Properties
Butyl levulinate has a sweet and slightly pungent caramellic odor with fruity undertones; mild sweet caramellicherbaceous taste; bitter taste.
Uses
Butyl 4-Oxopentanoate is used in preparation and application of magnetic nano-solid acid catalyst iron oxide-polydopamine-sulfonic acid
Uses
Butyl levulinate can be used in flavor compositions for imitation Butter, Rum, and in various fruit flavors, "Tutti-frutti", etc. Concentration is usually mere traces (a few ppm. ) in the finished product.
Production Methods
Butyl levulinate can be produced by direct esterificalion of n-Butyl alcohol with Levulinic acid.
Definition
ChEBI: Butyl levulinate is an oxo carboxylic acid.
