Dodecanoic acid, 2-hydroxy-3-(phenylmethoxy)propyl ester

Description:
Dodecanoic acid, 2-hydroxy-3-(phenylmethoxy)propyl ester, also known as a fatty acid ester, is a chemical compound characterized by its ester functional group derived from dodecanoic acid (a medium-chain fatty acid) and a phenylmethoxy group. This compound typically exhibits properties associated with esters, such as being a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant odor. It is likely to be soluble in organic solvents while having limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic dodecanoic acid component. The presence of the hydroxy and phenylmethoxy groups may impart additional functionalities, potentially enhancing its reactivity and making it suitable for various applications, including in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. Its molecular structure suggests it may have emulsifying properties, which can be beneficial in formulations. As with many esters, it may also exhibit low toxicity, but specific safety and handling guidelines should be followed. Overall, this compound's unique structure contributes to its potential utility in diverse chemical applications.
