hexyl propionate

Description:
Hexyl propionate, with the CAS number 2445-76-3, is an ester formed from hexanol and propanoic acid. It is typically characterized by its pleasant fruity odor, making it a common choice in the fragrance and flavoring industries. This compound is a colorless liquid at room temperature and is known for its relatively low volatility. Hexyl propionate is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water, which is typical for many esters. Its chemical structure contributes to its stability under normal conditions, although it may undergo hydrolysis in the presence of strong acids or bases. Hexyl propionate is often used in the formulation of perfumes, cosmetics, and food flavorings, providing a sweet, fruity note. Additionally, it may have applications in the production of various chemical intermediates. As with many chemical substances, safety data should be consulted to understand its handling and potential hazards.
