Pentanoic acid

Description:
Pentanoic acid, also known as valeric acid, is a straight-chain saturated fatty acid with the molecular formula C5H10O2. It is characterized by a five-carbon chain with a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) at one end. This compound is a colorless liquid with a pungent odor reminiscent of rancid butter or cheese. Pentanoic acid is soluble in water, ethanol, and ether, which is typical for short-chain fatty acids. Its boiling point is relatively low compared to larger fatty acids, and it exhibits moderate acidity, with a pKa value indicating its ability to donate protons in solution. Pentanoic acid is used in various applications, including the synthesis of esters for flavoring and fragrance, as well as in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, it can be found naturally in some animal fats and plant oils. Safety considerations include its potential to cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes, and proper handling is advised in laboratory and industrial settings.

  • Valeric acid

    CAS:
    <p>Valeric acid is a fatty acid that is used in the manufacture of polymers. Valeric acid can be synthesized from caproic acid, which is found in palm oil and coconut oil. Valeric acid has been shown to inhibit the activity of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors at low concentrations and to have an inhibitory effect on the ryanodine receptor at high concentrations. Valeric acid also has a matrix effect on analytical methods such as gas-liquid chromatography, which has been modeled using polymer compositions.</p>
