| | ETHYL CYCLOHEXANEPROPIONATE Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Ethyl cyclohexanepropionate has a powerful, fruity odor of pear–peach–banana type. | | Uses |
Sweet and fruity taste in dilutions of about 10 ppm. The power is considerably greater than that of the conventional alifatic esters. This ester is used in Europe and other countries in flavor compositions for candy, etc. In fact, the esters of Cyclohexane acetic acid, Cyclohexane propionic acid and a few homologucs, are quite popular outside of the United States of America. They are usually applied in conjunction with the lower alifatic esters to increase the overall power of the flavor.
