Phenyl pentanoate

Description:

Phenyl pentanoate, with the CAS number 20115-23-5, is an ester formed from the reaction of phenol and pentanoic acid. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant, fruity odor, making it useful in flavoring and fragrance applications. It has a relatively low boiling point and is soluble in organic solvents, but its solubility in water is limited due to the hydrophobic nature of the phenyl group. Phenyl pentanoate is characterized by its stability under normal conditions, although it may undergo hydrolysis in the presence of strong acids or bases. Its molecular structure features a pentanoate chain, which contributes to its properties as a fatty acid derivative. This compound is often utilized in the synthesis of other chemicals and may also have applications in the food and cosmetic industries due to its aromatic qualities. As with many esters, it is important to handle phenyl pentanoate with care, following appropriate safety guidelines to avoid potential hazards associated with chemical exposure.

Phenyl pentanoate is an ester compound that has been shown to inhibit the activity of plk1, a protein kinase involved in the regulation of cell division. Phenyl pentanoate is also used as a solid catalyst for polymeric matrices and can be used as a coating for degradable materials. In addition to its use as a drug substance, phenyl pentanoate can be used as an aliphatic hydrocarbon in coatings and as a methylvaleric acid dehydrogenase substrate. Phenyl pentanoate is also able to inhibit cancer cells by inhibiting fatty acid synthesis and the production of methylvaleric acid. It may also be useful in the treatment of diabetes due to its ability to inhibit glucose uptake by cells.
