ethyl 5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-5-oxo-pentanoate

Description:
Ethyl 5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-5-oxo-pentanoate, identified by its CAS number 101577-33-7, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group and a ketone moiety. This compound features a pentanoate backbone, which is a five-carbon chain with a carbonyl group (ketone) at the fifth position, and an ethyl ester group. The presence of the 4-tert-butylphenyl substituent introduces significant steric bulk and hydrophobic characteristics, influencing its solubility and reactivity. Typically, compounds of this nature exhibit moderate to low solubility in water but are more soluble in organic solvents. Ethyl 5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-5-oxo-pentanoate may be utilized in various applications, including organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Its structural features suggest potential for interesting chemical reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic addition reactions due to the electrophilic nature of the carbonyl group. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with all chemical substances, to mitigate any risks associated with exposure or reactivity.
