Chemical Information
FooDB NameIsobutyl isobutyrate
DescriptionIsobutyl isobutyrate 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). Isobutyl isobutyrate is a grape skin, pineapple, and tropical tasting compound. Isobutyl isobutyrate has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as alcoholic beverages, fruits, roman camomiles (Chamaemelum nobile), and sweet bays (Laurus nobilis). This could make isobutyl isobutyrate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a small amount of articles have been published on Isobutyl isobutyrate.
