CAS 103-52-6: 2-Phenylethyl butanoate
Description:2-Phenylethyl butanoate, with the CAS number 103-52-6, is an ester formed from the reaction of butanoic acid and 2-phenylethanol. This compound is characterized by its pleasant, fruity aroma, making it a popular choice in the flavor and fragrance industries. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is known for its low volatility and moderate solubility in water, while being more soluble in organic solvents. The molecular structure features a butanoate group attached to a phenylethyl moiety, contributing to its unique sensory properties. In terms of stability, 2-phenylethyl butanoate is relatively stable under standard conditions but may undergo hydrolysis in the presence of strong acids or bases. Its applications extend beyond flavoring and fragrance, as it can also serve as a chemical intermediate in organic synthesis. Safety data indicates that, while generally regarded as safe in low concentrations, it should be handled with care to avoid potential irritation or allergic reactions.
