Mono-2-ethyl-5-hydroxyhexyl phthalate

Description:
Mono-2-ethyl-5-hydroxyhexyl phthalate (CAS 40321-99-1) is an ester derived from phthalic acid and is characterized by its structure, which includes a phthalate moiety and a hydroxyalkyl chain. This compound is typically used as a plasticizer, enhancing the flexibility and durability of polymers, particularly in applications involving polyvinyl chloride (PVC). It exhibits moderate solubility in organic solvents and low volatility, making it suitable for various industrial applications. The presence of the hydroxy group contributes to its potential for hydrogen bonding, which can influence its interactions with other materials. Additionally, it is important to consider its environmental and health implications, as phthalates are often scrutinized for their potential endocrine-disrupting properties. Regulatory assessments may be necessary to evaluate its safety profile and environmental impact. Overall, Mono-2-ethyl-5-hydroxyhexyl phthalate serves as a significant compound in materials science, particularly in the formulation of flexible plastics.
