CAS 2396-80-7: Methyl 5-hexenoate
Description:Methyl 5-hexenoate is an organic compound classified as an ester, specifically derived from hexenoic acid and methanol. It features a double bond in its carbon chain, which contributes to its reactivity and potential applications in organic synthesis. The molecular structure consists of a six-carbon chain with a methyl ester functional group, making it a member of the alkenoate family. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a fruity odor, which is characteristic of many esters. Methyl 5-hexenoate is soluble in organic solvents and has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic carbon chain. It is used in various applications, including as a flavoring agent, fragrance component, and in the synthesis of other chemical compounds. Additionally, the presence of the double bond allows for further chemical modifications, making it a valuable intermediate in organic chemistry. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
