Heptanoic acid, 2,3-dihydroxypropyl ester

Description:

Heptanoic acid, 2,3-dihydroxypropyl ester, also known as 2,3-dihydroxypropyl heptanoate, is an ester derived from heptanoic acid and 2,3-dihydroxypropanol. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic fatty odor. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic heptanoic acid component. The presence of hydroxyl groups in its structure contributes to its potential as a surfactant and emulsifying agent, enhancing its utility in various applications, including cosmetics and food products. The compound is known for its relatively low toxicity, making it suitable for use in formulations that require skin compatibility. Additionally, it may exhibit properties such as stability under normal conditions and resistance to oxidation, which are beneficial for its shelf life in commercial products. As with many esters, it can undergo hydrolysis in the presence of water and acids or bases, reverting to its constituent acid and alcohol.
