Natural Product Identification
Common Name2-Methylpropyl benzoate
Description2-Methylpropyl benzoate, also known as benzoic acid isobutyl ester or fema 2185, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as benzoic acid esters. These are ester derivatives of benzoic acid. 2-Methylpropyl benzoate is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). 2-Methylpropyl benzoate is a sweet, balsam, and fruity tasting compound. Outside of the human body, 2-Methylpropyl benzoate has been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as alcoholic beverages, cocoa and cocoa products, and fruits. This could make 2-methylpropyl benzoate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. 2-Methylpropyl benzoate is found in Dittrichia graveolens , Acca sellowiana and Hypericum perforatum. 2-Methylpropyl benzoate was first documented in 1994 (PMID: 8005463). A benzoate ester obtained by the formal condensation of benzoic acid with isobutanol.
