Uses
Solvent for cellulose acetate and starch ethers, flavoring.
Definition
ChEBI: Ethyl levulinate is an oxo carboxylic acid.
Preparation
Usually obtained by direct esterification of levulinic acid with ethanol and H2SO4 in benzene or in toluene; also in the presence of HCI in ethanol; other methods starting from glucose, fructose and others are of less importance.
Taste threshold values
Taste characteristics at 40 ppm: fruity, green, waxy and melon.
