Neodecanoic acid

Description:

Neodecanoic acid, also known as 2-ethylhexanoic acid, is a branched-chain fatty acid characterized by its unique structure that includes a carboxylic acid functional group. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor and is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. The molecular formula of neodecanoic acid is C10H20O2, and it features a carbon chain that contributes to its hydrophobic properties. This acid is primarily used in the production of various esters, which serve as plasticizers, lubricants, and surfactants in industrial applications. Additionally, neodecanoic acid is utilized in the synthesis of certain pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its branched structure enhances its performance in applications requiring low volatility and high thermal stability. Safety considerations include handling it with care, as it can cause irritation to the skin and eyes. Overall, neodecanoic acid is valued for its versatility and effectiveness in various chemical processes.

Neodecanoic acid

CAS: 26896-20-8

Neodecanoic acid is a carboxylate that is used in the process optimization of an extractant. It reacts with hydroxyl groups and sodium citrate, which are both contained within the extractant, to form an alkanoic acid. The product has a high resistance to epoxidation and can be used as a model system for fatty acids. Neodecanoic acid is also often used as a detergent composition because it has good surfactant properties.
