SANTALYL ACETATE Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Santalyl acetate (α- and β-) has a characteristic, sandalwood-like odor. It has a pleasant bittersweet taste with an apricot-like undertone.

Occurrence

Has apparently not been reported to occur in nature.

Preparation

By acetylation of santalol obtained from sandalwood oil that contains the two stereoisomer forms (α and β) of the alcohol; therefore, the resulting ester is a mixture of the α- and β-isomers.

Taste threshold values

Taste characteristics at 50 ppm: woody, ionone and berry-like.
