| TETRAHYDROFURFURYL ACETATE Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Colorless liquid. Soluble in water, alcohol, ether, and chloroform. Combustible. |
| Chemical Properties | Tetrahydrofurfuryl acetate has a faint, fruity, ethereal odor, somewhat similar to acetic acid (reminiscent of methyl formate). It has a sweet, ethereal, deep, fruit-like flavor. |
| Uses | Tetrahydrofurfuryl Acetate is a synthetic flavoring agent that is a stable, colorless liquid of slightly fruity odor. it should be stored in glass or tin containers. it is used in fruit flavors for application in candy and baked goods at 2–20 ppm. |
| Preparation | By acetylation of the corresponding alcohol with acetic anhydride, acetyl chloride, or acetic acid and mineral acids. |
| Taste threshold values | Taste characteristics at 100 ppm: sweet, brown, caramel-like with nutty, rummy nuances. |
| General Description | The radical-chain racemisation of (R)-tetrahydrofurfuryl acetate has been studied. |
