| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [General Description]
A colorless oily liquid with a strong odor similar to apples. Less dense than water. Vapors heavier than air. Flash point 77°F. May mildly irritate skin and eyes. | [Reactivity Profile]
ETHYL ISOVALERATE is an ester. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides. | [Air & Water Reactions]
Highly flammable. Slightly soluble in water. | [Health Hazard]
Inhalation or contact with material may irritate or burn skin and eyes. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may cause pollution. | [Chemical Properties]

Ethyl isovalerate has a strong, fruity, vinous, apple-like odor on dilution. | [Chemical Properties]
Ethyl Isovalerate is a colorless liquid
with a fruity odor reminiscent of blueberries. It occurs in fruits, vegetables, and
alcoholic beverages. It is used in fruit aroma compositions. | [Occurrence]
Reported found in pineapple, orange juice and peel oil, bilberry, blueberry, strawberry, Swiss cheese, other
cheeses, beer, cognac, rum, cider, whiskey, sherry, grape wines, cocoa, passion fruit, mango and mussels. | [Uses]
In alcohol solution for flavoring confectionery and beverages. | [Definition]
ChEBI: The fatty acid ethyl ester of isovaleric acid. | [Preparation]
By esterification of isovaleric acid with ethyl alcohol in the presence of concentrated H2SO4. | [Production Methods]
Ethyl isovalerate is produced by combining isovaleric acid
and ethanol in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid or
hydrochloric acid ester followed by distillation . | [Aroma threshold values]

| Questions And Answer | Back Directory | [Description]
Ethyl isovalerate is the ethyl ester form of isovalerate formed between ethyl alcohol with isovaleric acid. It is a derivative of valeric acid, mainly found in fruits (one of the major component of blueberry). It is a kind of natural food flavoring agent with a fruity type odor and flavor. It is widely used in perfumery and fragrance. It is now frequently synthesized using surfactant-coated lipase (various kinds of origins) immobilized in magnetic nanoparticles.
