Chemical make up data base?
submitted over 10 years ago by Helfrd0771

Does any one know if there is a data base that one could search for flavor based on chemical make up?

For example: Methyl phenylacetate

I know it is used in tpa honey, has a honey/floral/spice aroma. When I search I can find Methyl phenylacetate for sale, but how can I find other commercial flavors that contain it?

Any and all help would be great appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Here is a list for TPA flavor chemical make ups that /u/laughmore showed me. It doesn't seem to be search able but someone smarter than me with computers may know how to do that. [TPA] (http://shop.perfumersapprentice.com/specsheetlist.aspx)

####	 Methyl phenylacetate:


>

>Methyl phenylacetate is an organic compound that is the ester formed from methanol and phenylacetic acid, with the structural formula C6H5CH2COOCH3. It is a clear colorless liquid that is only slightly soluble in water, but very soluble in most organic solvents.

>Methyl phenylacetate has a strong odor similar to honey. The odor is so strong that recommended smelling is of a solution with 10% or less methyl phenylacetate. This compound also naturally occurs in brandy, capsicum, coffee, honey, pepper and some wine.

>Methyl phenylacetate is used in the flavor industry and in perfumes to impart honey scents.
