Ordering Information

Biological Activity

Methyl p-tert-butylphenylacetate is a synthetic aroma compound and flavoring ingredient characterized by a roasted, chocolate-like organoleptic profile. As an aromatic ester derivative, it is primarily utilized in flavor compositions to impart sweet, cocoa nuances. Biological evaluations of structurally related phenylacetate esters indicate that these flavor ingredients undergo rapid metabolic hydrolysis by endogenous carboxylesterases into corresponding carboxylic acids and alcohols, facilitating efficient metabolic clearance.

Solvent Solubility & Note
FAQ
Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
  • Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
  • Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
  • For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
  • Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
