clear yellowish oily liquid | [Application]
Butyl benzoate has been used as:
preservative in commercial cosmetic lotions
as involatile solvent, for sampling of isocyanates with silica gel solid phase extraction | [Uses]
It is used as a solvent for cellulose ether, a dye
carrier for textiles, and a perfume ingredient . It
occurs naturally as a volatile component of various fruits and
vegetables . It has been approved by the FDA as an
indirect food additive for use as a component of adhesives. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Butyl benzoate is a benzoate ester obtained by condensation of benzoic acid and butanol. It is used as a perfume ingredient and as a solvent for cellulose ether, a dye carrier for textiles. It has a role as an antimicrobial food preservative, a fragrance and a plant metabolite. | [Production Methods]
Butyl benzoate is formed by the direct esterification of
n-butyl alcohol with benzoic acid under azeotropic conditions
