Chemical Information
FooDB NameBenzyl propionate
DescriptionBenzyl propionate belongs to the class of organic compounds known as benzyloxycarbonyls. These are organic compounds containing a carbonyl group substituted with a benzyloxyl group. Benzyl propionate is a sweet, apple, and balsam tasting compound. Benzyl propionate has been detected, but not quantified in, muskmelons (Cucumis melo). This could make benzyl propionate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Benzyl propionate.
