Methyl butyrate is a clear colourless liquid which is slightly soluble in water. It adds flavour and odour to fruits and flowers. It has a characteristic pineapple odour.
Application
It was used as reference material in analysing FAME from different fat classes using proton transfer reaction mass spectrometry (PTR-MS).[1]

An easily dispersible multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) derivative is prepared, and provides a platform for the synthesis of the phenyl butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) analog. The carbene addition reaction of MWCNTs makes derivatives that are less soluble in organic
A radiochemical assay for carboxylesterase based on the substrate methyl[1-14C]butyrate is described. The blank value corresponds to 1.04 micrograms (liver)-1.44 mg (plasma) of tissues with the highest and lowest activity respectively, which constitute the sensitivity of the method. The hydrolysis

Breast cancer is one of the most prevalent woman cancers. Genomic instability, accumulative mutations, and subsequent changes in intracellular signaling cascades play key roles in the development of human breast cancers. Activation of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) has been implicated in

Purified Pseudomonas fluorescens lipase [EC 3.1.1.3] exhibited slight activity on water-soluble esters such as methyl butyrate, and this activity was increased on addition of Brij 58 (20 oxyethylene hexadecyl ether) to the solution. This stimulating effect of Brij 58 on
