Isopropyl formate is an organic chemical compound. Like many other aliphatic carboxylic acid esters, it has an odor. It is described as pleasant and fruit-like, similar to plums or pears. In fact, many fruits contain isopropyl formate, but their smell is determined by a combination of esters, not by isopropyl formate alone.
