Methyl cyclohexanecarboxylate has a cheese-like odor | [Occurrence]
Reported found in Bourbon vanilla. | [Uses]
Methyl cyclohexanecarboxylate may be used in chemical synthesis studies. | [Uses]
Odorant found in virgin olive oil and green olives. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Methyl cyclohexanecarboxylate is a methyl ester resulting from the formal condensation of the carboxy group of cyclohexanecarboxylic acid with methanol. It has a role as a human metabolite and a flavouring agent. It is a methyl ester and a volatile organic compound. It is functionally related to a cyclohexanecarboxylic acid. | [Preparation]
Prepared in 65% overall yield from a two-step procedure starting with readily available chlorocyclohexane. | [Taste threshold values]
Taste characteristics at 20 ppm: cooling, sweet, fruity and floral | [Synthesis Reference(s)]
