Chemical Information
FooDB NamePropyl propionate
DescriptionPropyl propionate belongs to the class of organic compounds known as carboxylic acid esters. These are carboxylic acid derivatives in which the carbon atom from the carbonyl group is attached to an alkyl or an aryl moiety through an oxygen atom (forming an ester group). Propyl propionate is a sweet, bitter, and chemical tasting compound. Propyl propionate has been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as apples (Malus pumila), black elderberries (Sambucus nigra), and sweet cherries (Prunus avium). This could make propyl propionate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Propyl propionate, with regard to humans, has been found to be associated with several diseases such as ulcerative colitis, crohn's disease, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease; propyl propionate has also been linked to the inborn metabolic disorder celiac disease. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Propyl propionate.
