CAS 21239-29-2

Benzoic acid, 3,5-dimethyl-, ethyl ester

Description:

Benzoic acid, 3,5-dimethyl-, ethyl ester, with the CAS number 21239-29-2, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of benzoate esters. It is characterized by its structure, which includes a benzoic acid moiety with two methyl groups located at the 3 and 5 positions of the aromatic ring, and an ethyl ester functional group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant, fruity odor. It is moderately soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. The presence of the ester functional group contributes to its reactivity, making it susceptible to hydrolysis under acidic or basic conditions. Benzoic acid derivatives, including this compound, are often used in the fragrance and flavoring industries due to their aromatic properties. Additionally, they may exhibit antimicrobial activity, making them of interest in food preservation and other applications. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with all chemical substances.
