Butyl laurate

Description:
Butyl laurate, with the CAS number 106-18-3, is an ester formed from the reaction of butanol and lauric acid. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic fatty odor. This compound is known for its low toxicity and is often used as a flavoring agent and fragrance in food and cosmetic products. Butyl laurate has a relatively low boiling point and is soluble in organic solvents, making it useful in various applications, including as a solvent and emulsifier. Its chemical structure features a long hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain, which contributes to its surfactant properties. Additionally, butyl laurate exhibits good stability under normal conditions, although it may undergo hydrolysis in the presence of water, especially under acidic or basic conditions. Overall, butyl laurate is valued for its functional properties in both industrial and consumer products, particularly in formulations requiring emulsification or solubilization.
