Benzyl acetate is a flavouring agent Benzyl acetate is an organic compound with the molecular formula C9H10O2. It is the ester formed by condensation of benzyl alcohol and acetic acid. It is one of many compounds that is attractive to males of various species of orchid bees, who apparently gather the chemical to synthesize pheromones.
Benzyl alcohol is an aromatic alcohol with the formula C6H5CH2OH. The benzyl group is often abbreviated "Bn" (not to be confused with "Bz" which is used for benzoyl), thus benzyl alcohol is denoted as BnOH. Benzyl alcohol is a colorless liquid with a mild pleasant aromatic odor. It is a useful solvent due to its polarity, low toxicity, and low vapor pressure.

Benzyl alcohol is a colorless liquid with a mild pleasant aromatic odor. It is a useful solvent due to its polarity, low toxicity, and low vapor pressure. Benzyl alcohol has moderate solubility in water (4 g/100 mL) and is miscible in alcohols and diethyl ether. The anion produced by deprotonation of the alcohol group is known as benzylate or benzyloxide.
As a medication it is used to treat scabies and lice. For scabies either permethrin or malathion is typically preferred. It is applied to the skin as a lotion. Typically two to three applications are needed. Benzyl benzoate is a benzyl compound that can be synthesized by reacting benzyl chloride with sodium benzoate in the presence of tetrabutylaramonium iodide. It is reported to be the key constituent in the essential oils isolated from leaves and stem bark of Cinnamomum zeylanicum. Its toxicity has been assessed. The mechanism of thermal decomposition of benzyl benzoate has been investigated.
The growing demand for benzyl acetate in the personal care industry across different regions of the world is anticipated to drive the global benzyl acetate market in the next few years. The major players operating in the benzyl acetate market are primarily focusing on the emergent countries for tapping their immense market potential. The key companies operating in the benzyl acetate market are installing gigantic production facilities in these developing countries to fulfill the swiftly rising local demand for benzyl acetate. Therefore, the global benzyl acetate market is expected to witness a noteworthy growth in the next years.
Benzyl alcohol demand is projected to gain impulse with increasing demand from end use industries. Growing demand for paints and coating with rapid infrastructural developments in emerging economies such as India, China and Brazil is projected to drive the demand for benzyls alcohol over the forecast period. Further, growth in disposable income of middle class impelling the demand for automobiles which is subsequently fueling the demand for paints and coatings which in turn is driving the demand for benzyl alcohol. Paints and coating application accounts for major share of the global benzyl benzoate market. Thus, growing paint and coating industry is anticipated to drive the demand for benzyl alcohol over the forecast period. Besides this, increasing use of benzyl alcohol as an anti-parasite medication used to treat head lice. It is also used as a common preservative in many injectable drugs.
Benzyl Benzoate covers the existing situation and the progress predictions of the Benzyl Benzoate Industry for 2018-2023. Benzyl benzoate is a kind of ester compound by condensation of benzoate and benzyl alcohol, there are a lot of important applications. It can mainly be used in textile auxiliaries, flavors and Fragrance, pharmaceuticals and plasticizer.
