colorless liquid. Found in citrus, Apple, melon and other foods and related essential oils, insoluble in water. Dissolve in 80% ethanol 1:2.
obtained by acid catalysis of N-decanol and acetic anhydride. Alternatively, it can be obtained by direct esterification of acetic acid with decanol by azeotropic reflux dehydration.
has been widely used in the preparation of edible flavor and daily chemical flavor. Can be used for the preparation of berries, ether flavor, apple, orange, peach, apricot, pineapple and other food flavor and wine flavor and tobacco flavor. Among them, the amount of cold drinks, drinks to sweet pudding, chewing gum is 2.7~12mg/kg, especially in the citrus, rose essence with special flavor. It is used as soap essence, detergent essence, perfume essence, cream essence, etc.
both the acute oral LD50 of the Rat and The percutaneous LD50 of the Rabbit were greater than 5g/kg; Mild erythema appeared on the skin of the Rabbit 1 day after application of the sample under the closed condition. Its 8% Vaseline paste on the human body two days of closed skin contact test, found no irritation and allergic effect. Flammable materials, stored in a cool place.
