C10H18O2 (170.1306728)

Octen-1-ol acetate is a member of the class of compounds known as enol esters. Enol esters are ester derivatives of enols. They have the general formula RC=COC(=O)R where R, R = H or organyl group. Octen-1-ol acetate is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Octen-1-ol acetate can be found in sweet basil, which makes octen-1-ol acetate a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product.
