CAS 1723-25-7
:Butanoic acid, 2,3-dioxo-, ethyl ester
Description:
Butanoic acid, 2,3-dioxo-, ethyl ester, also known by its CAS number 1723-25-7, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group derived from butanoic acid and a diketone structure. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a fruity odor, which is common among esters. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic alkyl chains. The presence of the dioxo group indicates that it contains two carbonyl (C=O) functionalities, which can influence its reactivity, particularly in condensation reactions or as a potential precursor in synthetic organic chemistry. Butanoic acid derivatives are often studied for their applications in flavoring, fragrance, and as intermediates in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals. Safety data should be consulted, as with many organic compounds, it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled, necessitating appropriate handling and storage measures.
