Isoamyl o-hydroxybenzoate Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

From isoamyl alcohol and salicylic acid esterification and fractionation.

Uses

In perfumery and soaps.


Isoamyl Salicylate is used in preparation of Hydrogen Peroxide responsive Oxalic Acid derivatives for imaging and therapy.


Isoamyl o-hydroxybenzoate is used in perfumery and soaps. Extensively used in floral and non-floral perfume types: Very often in Carnation, Hyacinth, Orchid, Tretle, and almost inevitably in Fougere types. Its low cost and worldwide availability makes it one of the most important perfume chemicals. Occasionally used in "Root Beer" type flavors and certain Fruit flavors. Concentra- tion is usually mere traces (a few ppm in finished consumer product).
