Abstract
A mixture of disaccharide esters of 3-methylpentanoic and acetic acid is prepared and used as flavor precursors. The esters average at least 4 and preferably at least 4.5 3-methylpentanoyl groups per disaccharide moiety, with remaining positions being substantially occupied by acetyl groups. Suitable disaccharides are sucrose and lactose. Preferably the disaccharide ester has an acetyl/methylpentanoyl group ratio of about 2.3 to 3.2:4.8 to 5.7. The disaccharide esters are suitable for flavoring products undergoing a heating step during preparation or consumption, such as ingredient mixes for extrusion, frying or baking, and especially tobacco. On heating they liberate 3-methylpentanoic acid and/or its decomposition products.
