Ethyl 6-(acetyloxy)hexanoate

Description:
Ethyl 6-(acetyloxy)hexanoate, with the CAS number 104986-28-9, is an ester compound characterized by its molecular structure, which includes an ethyl group and an acetyloxy functional group attached to a hexanoate chain. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a fruity odor, making it potentially useful in flavoring and fragrance applications. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits moderate solubility in water, which is common for esters. Ethyl 6-(acetyloxy)hexanoate may be synthesized through esterification reactions, where hexanoic acid reacts with ethanol in the presence of an acid catalyst, followed by acetylation. The compound's properties, such as boiling point and density, can vary based on environmental conditions and purity. As with many esters, it may undergo hydrolysis in the presence of water, reverting to its constituent acid and alcohol. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with all chemical substances.
