General description

Pentyl propionate is a linear ester. It is formed during the in vivo recombinant MpAAT1 volatile trapping experiments, using pentanol as substrate. 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.

Application

Pentyl propionate, an ester, has been employed for the evaluation of experimental values of HEm and VEm at 318.15K for the binary mixtures of alkyl propanoates with alkanes.
