| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [General Description]
Clear colorless liquid with a honey-like odor. | [Reactivity Profile]
BENZYL PHENYLACETATE(102-16-9) is an ester. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides. This chemical is sensitive to excessive light and heat. | [Air & Water Reactions]
Insoluble in water. | [Fire Hazard]
This chemical is probably combustible. | [Chemical Properties]
Benzyl phenylacetate has a sweet, floral (jasmine-rose) odor and a slight honey-like taste. | [Chemical Properties]
Colorless liquid; honeylike odor.Soluble in alcohol. Combustible. | [Occurrence]
Not reported found in nature; phenylacetic acid, on the other hand, has been reported in several essential
oils. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Phenylmethyl benzeneacetate is a carboxylic ester. It is functionally related to a benzyl alcohol. | [Preparation]
By direct esterification of benzyl alcohol with phenylacetic acid. | [Synthesis Reference(s)]
