Description	Methyl phenyl acetate is an organic compound that is the ester formed from methanol and phenyl acetic 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 phenyl acetate has a strong odor similar to honey. The odor is so strong that recommended smelling is of a solution with 10% or less methyl phenyl acetate. This compound also naturally occurs in brandy, capsicum, coffee, honey, pepper and some wine. Methyl phenyl acetate is used in the flavor industry and in perfumes to impart honey scents.
Chemical Properties	Methyl phenylacetate has an intense odor suggestive of honey and jasmine. It has a sweet, honey-like flavor.
