4-Ethyloctanoic acid

Description:

4-Ethyloctanoic acid, with the CAS number 16493-80-4, is a branched-chain fatty acid characterized by its eight-carbon backbone and an ethyl group attached to the fourth carbon. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and has a distinct fatty odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The presence of a carboxylic acid functional group imparts acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as esterification and amidation. 4-Ethyloctanoic acid is often used in the synthesis of surfactants, lubricants, and plasticizers, as well as in the formulation of certain pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. Its branched structure can influence its physical properties, such as melting and boiling points, making it distinct from its straight-chain counterparts. Safety data indicates that, like many fatty acids, it should be handled with care to avoid skin and eye irritation.
