Chemical Information
FooDB NameButyl palmitate
DescriptionButyl palmitate, also known as N-butyl palmitic acid or hexadecanoic acid, butyl ester, is a member of the class of compounds known as fatty acid esters. Fatty acid esters are carboxylic ester derivatives of a fatty acid. Butyl palmitate is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Butyl palmitate can be found in common grape, which makes butyl palmitate a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product.
