Hexyl heptanoate

Description:
Hexyl heptanoate, with the CAS number 1119-06-8, is an ester formed from hexanol and heptanoic acid. It is characterized by its pleasant fruity odor, which makes it useful in the flavor and fragrance industries. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is known for its relatively low volatility. Hexyl heptanoate is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. Its molecular structure consists of a long hydrocarbon chain, contributing to its lipophilic properties. The compound is often utilized in the formulation of perfumes, cosmetics, and food flavorings, where it imparts a fruity note. Additionally, it may be used in various industrial applications, including as a solvent or plasticizer. Safety data indicates that, while generally regarded as safe in low concentrations, appropriate handling and safety measures should be observed to minimize exposure.
