This clear, colourless liquid is known by its characteristic odour of pears. Due to this fact, it is commonly used as a flavouring additive. It is formed by the [[esterification]] of [[acetic acid]] and [[propan-1-ol]]. ==References== {{Unreferenced|date =September 2007}} {{reflist}} ==External links== *[http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/npg/npgd0532.html NIOSH Pocket Guide to Chemical Hazards] *[http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/rtecs/aj381378.html Acetic acid, propyl ester] - Toxicity Data *[http://www.mathesontrigas.com/pdfs/msds/MAT16000.pdf N-Propyl Acetate MSDS] [[Category:Esters]] [[Category:Acetates]] [[Category:Carboxylate esters]] [[Category:Ester solvents]] [[Category:Flavors]] {{organic-compound-stub}} [[de:N-Propylacetat]] [[fr:Acétate de propyle]] [[ja:酢酸プロピル]] [[fi:N-propyyliasetaatti]]
