Methyl petroselinate

Description:
Methyl petroselinate, with the CAS number 2777-58-4, is an ester derived from petroselinic acid and methanol. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid that is typically characterized by a pleasant, herbal aroma. This compound is primarily found in the essential oils of certain plants, particularly in the Apiaceae family, which includes parsley. Methyl petroselinate is known for its potential applications in the fragrance and flavor industry due to its aromatic properties. Additionally, it may exhibit some biological activities, although specific studies on its pharmacological effects are limited. The substance is soluble in organic solvents but has low solubility in water, which is typical for many esters. As with many organic compounds, safety data should be consulted to understand its handling and potential hazards, particularly regarding skin and eye contact. Overall, methyl petroselinate is an interesting compound with applications in various fields, particularly in natural product chemistry and the development of flavoring agents.
