content analysis | was determined by Method 2 in the ester determination method (OT-18). The amount of the sample used was 1.2g. The titration time was changed to phenol red test solution (TS-166) as an indicator. The equivalence factor (e) in the calculation is taken as 75.09. Preferably, it is determined by a GT-10-4 non-polar column method. |

Use | is suitable for use in Narcissus, yellow narcissus and large-flowered jasmine. In the white blue, purple clove, lily of the valley, Hyacinth, fragrant Loran, ylang ylang type is also appropriate, there is an increase in the strong flower flavor of the utility, the dosage is generally less than 1%, in the food flavor is sometimes used in the nut flavor. blending spices, mixing ylang ylang, narcissus, kanangjia ylang, Lonicera japonica and other flavors. A sufficient effect was obtained at a concentration of 1% or less. Small amounts are used for food essences. used as a flavoring agent GB 2760 a 96 for the permitted use of edible spices. Mainly used in the preparation of banana, cherry, fruit and other types of fruit flavor. |
production method | is obtained by direct esterification of p-phenol with acetic anhydride. p-cresol is reacted with acetic anhydride in the presence of a small amount of sulfuric acid: After the reaction, it is washed with water and distilled to obtain a finished product. |
