Description :
Ethyl 4-Methylbenzoate, also referred to as 4-methylbenzoic acid ethyl Ester or P-toluic acid ethyl Ester, is an organic ester compound that is a transparent or pale yellow liquid with an incredibly fruity, sweet, and floral smell. The pleasant scent resulted from the esterification process that takes place in 4-Methylbenzoate acid by using alcohol. The result is a stabilized functional group of ester, which is bonded to a substituent for aromatic. The structure of Ethyl 4-Methylbenzoate comprises an ethyl-benzene benzene ring that is substituted at the para-position using the methyl group and the carboxylic acid group, giving the distinctive blend of aromatic aroma as well as moderate hydrophobicity.
Used as an aromatic component for Fragranced Perfumes and cosmetics due to its sweet floral fragrance.
Used as an enhancer in food products or flavor formulations to add fruity.
Used as an integral building block to manufacture active pharmaceutical ingredients and specialty chemicals.
Organic precursor materials or intermediates may be utilised as starting materials or intermediates in esterification reactions and other organic transformation processes.
