CAS 3274-28-0
:2-Propylhexanoic acid
Description:
2-Propylhexanoic acid, with the CAS number 3274-28-0, is a branched-chain fatty acid characterized by its unique structure, which includes a propyl group attached to the second carbon of a hexanoic acid backbone. This compound is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and has a relatively low volatility. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The acid features a carboxylic functional group, which imparts acidic properties and allows it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as esterification and amidation. 2-Propylhexanoic acid is often used in the synthesis of surfactants, lubricants, and plasticizers, and it can also serve as an intermediate in the production of other chemical compounds. Its branched structure contributes to its unique physical and chemical properties, making it valuable in industrial applications. Safety data indicates that, like many organic acids, it should be handled with care to avoid skin and eye irritation.
