Food-Grade Ethyl Octanoate (CAS 106-32-1, FEMA 2439)

Ethyl octanoate, also widely known in the industry as ethyl caprylate, is a premier ester renowned for its rich, multi-faceted aroma profile that evokes the warmth of sun-ripened fruits and delicate flowers. Identified globally by its CAS Registry Number 106-32-1 and recognized as safe by the Flavor and Extract Manufacturers Association under FEMA 2439, this compound is an indispensable building block for flavorists and perfumers alike.

Naturally occurring in various fruits such as apricots, pineapples, strawberries, and even in wine and cognac, our Food-Grade Ethyl Octanoate delivers an intense, sweet, and fruity scent with distinct waxy and floral undertones. Its unique olfactory character makes it the gold standard for creating realistic apricot, peach, and pineapple flavors. Beyond stone fruits, it adds depth and body to berry profiles, citrus blends, and tropical fruit compositions. In the realm of perfumery, it contributes a soft, fruity-floral nuance to fine fragrances, enhancing the overall bouquet with elegance and persistence.

Our manufacturing process ensures the highest level of purity and consistency, strictly adhering to international food safety regulations including the US FDA, European Union Flavouring Regulations, and China’s GB 2760 standard. Each batch of Ethyl octanoate (CAS 106-32-1) undergoes rigorous quality control testing using advanced Gas Chromatography (GC) to verify purity levels typically exceeding 98.0% or 99.0%, depending on the specific grade required. We meticulously monitor key physical parameters to guarantee batch-to-batch reproducibility: the Refractive Index is maintained within the precise range of 1.4080 – 1.4110 at 20°C, and the Specific Gravity is controlled between 0.873 – 0.878 at 25°C. These tight specifications ensure that the sensory performance of your final product remains consistent, whether used in carbonated soft drinks, alcoholic beverages, dairy products, candies, or baked goods.
