Chemical Information
FooDB NameOctyl benzoate
DescriptionOctyl benzoate, also known as octyl benzoic acid, is a member of the class of compounds known as benzoic acid esters. Benzoic acid esters are ester derivatives of benzoic acid. Octyl benzoate is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Octyl benzoate is a balsam and fruity tasting compound found in lemon balm, which makes octyl benzoate a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product.
