:Phenylmethyl decanoate
Description:
Phenylmethyl decanoate, also known as benzyl decanoate, is an ester formed from the reaction of benzyl alcohol and decanoic acid. It is characterized by its molecular structure, which includes a phenylmethyl group (benzyl) and a decanoate moiety. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant, fruity odor, making it suitable for use in fragrances and flavoring applications. It is moderately soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic decanoate chain. Phenylmethyl decanoate exhibits properties typical of esters, such as low volatility and stability under normal conditions. It is often utilized in the cosmetic and food industries, as well as in the synthesis of other chemical compounds. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as with many organic compounds, to avoid potential skin or respiratory irritation. Overall, its unique structure and properties make it a valuable compound in various industrial applications.
