Heptanoic acid, 6-methyl-3-oxo-, methyl ester

Description:
Heptanoic acid, 6-methyl-3-oxo-, methyl ester, also known by its CAS number 104214-14-4, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group derived from heptanoic acid and a ketone. This compound features a seven-carbon chain with a methyl group and a keto group at specific positions, contributing to its unique chemical properties. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor. The presence of the ester group indicates that it can participate in reactions typical of esters, such as hydrolysis and transesterification. Its molecular structure suggests it may exhibit moderate solubility in organic solvents while being less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic carbon chain. This compound may find applications in the synthesis of fragrances, flavoring agents, or as an intermediate in organic synthesis. Additionally, its properties may be influenced by factors such as temperature and the presence of other functional groups in a reaction mixture.
