Chemical Information
FooDB Name1-Phenylethyl acetate
Description1-Phenylethyl acetate belongs to the class of organic compounds known as benzyloxycarbonyls. These are organic compounds containing a carbonyl group substituted with a benzyloxyl group. 1-Phenylethyl acetate is a gardenia, green, and leafy tasting compound. 1-Phenylethyl acetate is found, on average, in the highest concentration within cloves (Syzygium aromaticum). 1-Phenylethyl acetate has also been detected, but not quantified in, pears (Pyrus communis). This could make 1-phenylethyl acetate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on 1-Phenylethyl acetate.
