CAS 2396-84-1: Ethyl sorbate

Description: Ethyl sorbate, with the CAS number 2396-84-1, is an ester formed from sorbic acid and ethanol. It is characterized by its clear, colorless liquid form and a pleasant, fruity odor, making it useful in the food and fragrance industries. Ethyl sorbate is soluble in organic solvents and has limited solubility in water. Its chemical structure consists of a sorbate moiety linked to an ethyl group, which contributes to its properties. This compound is primarily used as a flavoring agent and preservative due to its antimicrobial properties, particularly against molds and yeasts. Additionally, it can serve as an intermediate in organic synthesis. Ethyl sorbate is generally recognized as safe when used in appropriate concentrations, but like many chemicals, it should be handled with care to avoid potential irritation or adverse reactions. Its stability and reactivity can vary depending on environmental conditions, such as temperature and pH, which are important considerations in its applications.
