Use | GB 2760-96 specifies temporary use of flavorants. Ethyl phenylacetate is mainly used for the preparation of honey, peach and tobacco and other flower flavor. A small amount is used in many types of fragrance, mainly used in medium and low grade white rose, sandalwood rose, lily of the valley, sweet bean flower, orange flower, honey aroma, Clover and some fat wax aroma. Can be widely used in tobacco and food flavor, is a good flavor of tobacco flavor. In honey flavor, cream, apricot, cherry, peach and other food flavor in the amount should be less. ethyl phenylacetate is a synthetic spice with remarkable Sweet and dense rose fragrance. A small amount of white rose and a small amount of orange flower, sweet bean and honey fruit are used in the essence of tobacco, soap and daily cosmetics. It is suitable for the grass essence of La La Habo. In the pharmaceutical industry the product is used for the production of barbiturates hypnotic Lumina, can also be used as a solvent. used as pesticide, pharmaceutical intermediate, solvent and fragrance adjuvant, also used in organic synthesis. |
production method | is obtained by refluxing reaction of phenylacetonitrile, ethanol and sulfuric acid. Ethyl phenylacetate can also be prepared by refluxing and heating esterification of phenylacetic acid or Benzyl Cyanide with ethanol under the catalysis of sulfuric acid (or hydrochloric acid). The yield is 90%. Another method of production of phenylacetamide by hydrolysis, esterification and derived. |
