Metabolite Identification
Common NameHexyl 3-methylbutanoate
DescriptionHexyl 3-methylbutanoate, also known as hexyl isopentanoate or hexyl isovalerate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as fatty acid esters. These are carboxylic ester derivatives of a fatty acid. Hexyl 3-methylbutanoate is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral.
