Propyl hexanoate (C9H18O2) also known as propyl caproate is an ester formed by the reaction of propanol with hexanoic acid. Although it is a completely different ester propyl hexanoate shares the same chemical formula with methyl octanoate ethyl heptanoate butyl pentanoate etc. because they all have the same total carbon chain length. The scent of this ester can be described as that of blackberries pineapple cheese or wine.
