Description

General description

Pentyl propionate is a linear ester. It is formed during the in vivo recombinant MpAAT1 volatile trapping experiments, using pentanol as substrate.[1] It has been identified as one of the volatile compound emitted by the ′Gala′ apples after regular (RA) or controlled atmosphere (CA) storage by gas chromatography-olfactometry technique.[2]

Application

Pentyl propionate, an ester, has been employed for the evaluation of experimental values of H^E_m and V^E_m at 318.15K for the binary mixtures of alkyl propanoates with alkanes.[3]
