Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Chemical Properties]
Anisyl acetate has a floral, fruit-like odor (pleasant, vanilla, plum, lilac) and a slight pungent, sweet taste. | [Chemical Properties]
Anisyl Acetate has been found in several types
of berries. It is a colorless liquid with a fruity, slightly balsamic blossom odor and
is used occasionally in sweet, floral compositions but more frequently in flavor
compositions for fruity notes. | [Chemical Properties]
clear colourless to pale yellowish liquid | [Occurrence]
Reported found in vanilla and currants. | [Uses]
Perfumery, flavoring. | [Definition]
ChEBI: 4-Methoxybenzyl acetate is a carboxylic ester. It is functionally related to a benzyl alcohol. | [Preparation]
May be prepared by the reaction of anisic alcohol with acetic anhydride | [Production Methods]
Anisyl acetate can be produced from Anisyl alcohol by direct esterification with Acetic acid or Acetic anhydride. | [Taste threshold values]

Questions And Answer | Back Directory | [Aroma]
Mild fruity-floral, slightly balsamic-vani]ialike odor in the Plum and Lilac type, also
reminiscent of certain types of Cherry. Excellent in sweet florals such as Lilac,
Acacia, Mimosa, Violet, Honeysuckle. Anisyl acetate is
one of the classic ingredients to achieve the
so-called "powdery" notes which are still in
strong demand by the fragrance consumers.
In combination with Cyclamal it produces
very unusual, powerful and pleasant effects
of this type. Frequently used in flavor compositions for
imitation Berry, Chocolate, Cocoa, Fruit,
(Cherry), Vanilla, etc.
Concentrations usually about 30 ppm. This
ester performs very well in baked goods
(heat-stable). |
