The molecular formula for methyl butyrate, also known as methyl butanoate, is C5H10O2.
It is slightly soluble in water
I am also looking for the same. Do you have some market data for any of the Isoamyl derivative. We can work togehter & share the info.
no it does not smell like that
Amyl butyrate, CH3[CH2]2C(=O)-O[CH2]4CH3, IUPAC name: pentyl butanoate This ester has a smell reminiscent of pear or apricot. This chemical is used as an flavour added to cigarette- and pipe tobaccos.
Ethyl butanoate has an odor quite similar to that of pineapple.Note to anyone who thinks it would be fun to whip up some for a science fair project: Butanoic acid, one of the compounds you'll need to make it, does not smell a DARN THING like pineapple. Instead, the best words for describing ITS odor would include phrases like "rancid butter" and "warm vomit", and it's pervasive ... it can be readily detected by humans at concentrations of ten parts per million. Esterification is a reversible reaction (and ten ppm is pretty low), so unless you think the judges will be impressed by your "bathroom after a tiki-themed frat party" scent-in-a-vial, you might want to skip this one and instead go for something like methyl salicylate (which smells like wintergreen, but has much less offensive precursors).
In the more advanced organic chemistry labs, many introduce fisher esterification by using combinations that yield appealing scents to the students. This specific reaction, when run with small amounts of H2SO4 and one of the reactants in excess will yield an ester with a distinct smell - Bananas. Isoamyl acetate is also the pheromone bees use as a natural alarm, be careful Similar reactions are run to yield Pineapple oil (ethyl butanoate from ethanol and butanoic acid) and strawberry oil (methyl trans-cinnamate from trans-cinnamic acid with methanol)
The molecular formula for methyl butyrate, also known as methyl butanoate, is C5H10O2.
The smell is difficult or impossible to compare except in relation to other subjective smells. Part of the smell consists of an ester called isoamyl acetate, also found in pears. The human nose would probably find it difficult to distinguish between the presence of the chemical and the presence of an actual banana. The ester is also found in bees, where it is a pheromone released when the bee stings.
