The provided JSON configuration outlines a structured prompt for generating a comprehensive entry on a specific flavor and fragrance material, isobutyl acetate (CAS: 110-19-0), for FlavScents.com. This prompt is designed for use by a technical research assistant and is intended to produce a detailed, technically accurate, and citation-aware insight entry. Below is a breakdown of the key components and requirements of the prompt:
Key Components:
-
Material Type Handling:
- The prompt distinguishes between single chemical compounds and complex natural materials, providing specific instructions for each type. For isobutyl acetate, a single compound, the focus is on chemical identity and properties.
-
Depth Requirement:
- Each section must be substantively filled, with a target word count for single-compound materials set between 900-1400 words. If data is missing, the prompt instructs to note the absence and provide guidance or estimates.
-
Output Format:
- The entry should be formatted with numbered headings and include a "Citation hooks:" line under each section to indicate sources for further reference.
-
Sections:
- The entry is divided into specific sections, each with detailed instructions on what to include, such as Identity & Chemical Information, Sensory Profile, Natural Occurrence & Formation, Use in Flavors, Use in Fragrances, Regulatory Status, Toxicology, Safety & Exposure Considerations, Practical Insights for Formulators, and Confidence & Data Quality Notes.
-
Quality Assurance:
- A QA Check section is required to ensure all sections are present, citation hooks are included, and specific requirements for flavor, toxicology, and regulatory sections are met.
Constraints and Style:
- The writing should be tailored for experienced professionals, avoiding marketing language and focusing on interpretive insights rather than encyclopedic repetition.

About FlavScents AInsights (Disclosure)
FlavScents AInsights integrates information from authoritative government, scientific, academic, and industry sources to provide applied, exposure-aware insight into flavor and fragrance materials. Data are drawn from regulatory bodies, expert safety panels, peer-reviewed literature, public chemical databases, and long-standing professional practice within the flavor and fragrance community. Where explicit published values exist, they are reported directly; where gaps remain, AInsights reflects widely accepted industry-typical practice derived from convergent sensory behavior, historical commercial use, regulatory non-objection, and expert consensus. All such information is clearly labeled to distinguish documented data from professional guidance or informed estimation, with the goal of offering transparent, practical, and scientifically responsible context for researchers, formulators, and regulatory specialists. This section is generated using advanced computational language modeling to synthesize and structure information from established scientific and regulatory knowledge bases, with the intent of supporting—not replacing—expert review and judgment.
