About C9H10O3 (Ethyl salicylate)

Ethyl salicylate (C₉H₁₀O₃) is a clear liquid that emits a faintly sweet, wintergreen-like aroma. It is frequently employed in the flavor and fragrance industry due to its pleasant, minty scent and taste. Apart from its applications in perfumes and as a flavoring agent in certain candies and pharmaceutical products, ethyl salicylate is also utilized in sunscreens and other cosmetic products. Furthermore, this compound has been studied for its potential anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties, making it of interest in medical research. Chemical formula: 2-(HO)C₆H₄CO₂C₂H₅

Other names: ethyl_salicylate, C9H10O3, Ethyl salicylate, C₉H₁₀O₃, Ethyl 2-hydroxybenzoate, Benzoic acid, 2-hydroxy-, ethyl ester
