2-[2-(2-Hydroxyethoxy)ethoxy]ethyl octadecanoate

Description:
2-[2-(2-Hydroxyethoxy)ethoxy]ethyl octadecanoate, also known by its CAS number 10233-24-6, is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of esters. It is characterized by its long hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain derived from octadecanoic acid (stearic acid), which contributes to its lipophilic properties. The presence of the polyether segment, specifically the 2-hydroxyethoxy groups, imparts hydrophilic characteristics, making this compound amphiphilic. This dual nature allows it to function effectively as a surfactant or emulsifier in various applications, including cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and industrial formulations. The compound is typically colorless to pale yellow and may have a mild odor. Its solubility profile indicates that it can dissolve in both organic solvents and water to some extent, depending on the concentration and conditions. Additionally, it may exhibit low toxicity, but safety data should be consulted for specific handling and usage guidelines. Overall, its unique structure enables it to play a significant role in enhancing the stability and performance of formulations in which it is used.
