Chemical Information
FooDB Name2-Methylpropyl formate
Description2-Methylpropyl formate belongs to the class of organic compounds known as carboxylic acid esters. These are carboxylic acid derivatives in which the carbon atom from the carbonyl group is attached to an alkyl or an aryl moiety through an oxygen atom (forming an ester group). 2-Methylpropyl formate is a sweet, chemical, and ether tasting compound. 2-Methylpropyl formate has been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as alcoholic beverages, apples (Malus pumila), and pineapples (Ananas comosus). This could make 2-methylpropyl formate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on 2-Methylpropyl formate.
