CAS 4144-61-0
:ethyl 6-oxodecanoate
Description:
Ethyl 6-oxodecanoate, with the CAS number 4144-61-0, is an ester derived from the reaction of decanoic acid and ethanol. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic fruity odor, which is common among esters. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic decanoate chain. Ethyl 6-oxodecanoate is known for its applications in the flavor and fragrance industry, where it is used to impart fruity notes in various products. Additionally, it may serve as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of other chemical compounds. The presence of the keto group (6-oxo) in its structure contributes to its reactivity, making it a potential candidate for further chemical transformations. As with many organic compounds, safety precautions should be observed when handling ethyl 6-oxodecanoate, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.
