CAS 20279-29-2: phenyl 2-methylpropanoate
Description:Phenyl 2-methylpropanoate, with the CAS number 20279-29-2, is an ester formed from the reaction of phenol and 2-methylpropanoic 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 moderate solubility in organic solvents, while being less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic ring. The molecular structure features a phenyl group attached to a 2-methylpropanoate moiety, contributing to its unique chemical properties. Phenyl 2-methylpropanoate is known for its stability under normal conditions, but like many esters, it can undergo hydrolysis in the presence of water or strong acids/bases. It is important to handle this compound with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Overall, phenyl 2-methylpropanoate is valued in various industrial applications, particularly in the synthesis of other organic compounds.
