tin containers. it is used in flavors such as pineapple, papaya, and
passion fruit with applications in ice cream, beverages, candy, and
baked goods at 6–18 ppm. it is also termed ethyl-2,4-hexadienoate. | [CAS DataBase Reference]

clear colorless to yellowish liquid | [Chemical Properties]
Ethyl sorbate has a warm, fruity odor. | [Occurrence]
Reported found in cognac, white wine, special wine, botrytised wine, grape wine, starfruit, pawpaw and
prickly pear (Opuntia ficus-indica). | [Definition]
ChEBI: Ethyl sorbate is a fatty acid ester obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of sorbic acid and the hydroxy group of ethanol. It has a role as a metabolite. It is functionally related to a sorbic acid. | [Preparation]
By reacting gaseous HCl with a solution of sorbic acid in ethyl alcohol, or by direct esterification by reaction of sorbyl
chloride with absolute ethyl alcohol. | [Taste threshold values]
Taste characteristics at 30 ppm: fruity, sweet, green, pineapple, tutti fruity-like with juicy tropical nuance. | [General Description]
Ethyl sorbate is an active compound for electroantennographic detection. |
