Ethyl Pyruvate Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- Ethyl 2-Oxopropionate
- Propanoic Acid, 2-Oxo-, Ethyl Ester
Ethyl pyruvate supplier for flavour, fragrance and laboratory buyers in Malaysia. Ethyl pyruvate, also named ethyl 2-oxopropionate, is the ethyl ester of pyruvic acid, a colourless to pale yellow liquid with a fruity odour selected by grade and purity for the intended system.
Food, fragrance and laboratory grades can be requested. The material is slightly soluble in water and miscible with many organic solvents, which suits formulation and synthesis work alike.
Beverage and food flavour systems, fragrance and toiletry formulations, and laboratory research each carry their own assay and documentation requirements. State the end use and required purity so the quoted ester matches the application.
Send the required food, fragrance or laboratory grade, assay and sensory specification, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation, and supply is subject to applicable requirements.

Common questions about ethyl pyruvate
What is ethyl pyruvate used for?
Ethyl pyruvate is the ethyl ester of pyruvic acid. It is used as a fruity flavouring ingredient in beverage and food flavour systems, as an aroma component in fragrance work, and as a reagent and intermediate in laboratory synthesis.
Is ethyl pyruvate the same as ethyl 2-oxopropionate?
Yes. Ethyl 2-oxopropionate is a systematic name for the same compound, also described as the ethyl ester of pyruvic acid.
Which ethyl pyruvate grade should I request?
Food, fragrance and laboratory grades are selected against different purity and documentation requirements. Include the end use and required specification rather than requesting an unspecified ester.
What packing is ethyl pyruvate supplied in?
State the grade, quantity, preferred liquid-handling format and any receiving constraints with the enquiry. Available packing is confirmed for the quoted ethyl pyruvate requirement rather than fixed on this page.
How is ethyl pyruvate priced for Malaysian buyers?
Price depends on grade, purity, quantity, packing and delivery location. Send those details so the quotation can carry its own validity period.
