Introduction
Isoamyl benzoate. It is a colorless liquid with a fruity scent.
Isoamyl benzoate is a commonly used fragrance and solvent.
Isoamyl benzoate is usually prepared by esterification. Benzoic acid reacts with isoamyl alcohol to form isoamyl benzoate. This process can be catalyzed by esterifiers such as sulfuric acid or acetic acid, heated to a suitable temperature.
Its safety information: Isoamyl benzoate is a low-toxicity chemical. Care should still be taken to avoid contact with skin and eyes, as well as to avoid inhaling vapors during use. During storage and handling, the container should be kept tightly sealed, away from heat sources and open flames, and away from flammables and oxidizing agents.
