:ethyl 7-methyl-6-oxo-octanoate
Description:
Ethyl 7-methyl-6-oxo-octanoate is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group, which is derived from the reaction of an alcohol (ethanol) and a carboxylic acid (octanoic acid). This compound features a carbon chain of eight carbon atoms, with a ketone group at the sixth position and a methyl group at the seventh position, contributing to its unique structure and properties. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a fruity odor, making it potentially useful in flavoring and fragrance applications. The presence of the ester group imparts solubility in organic solvents while being less soluble in water. Ethyl 7-methyl-6-oxo-octanoate may also exhibit biological activity, which could be of interest in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its specific reactivity and stability depend on environmental conditions, such as temperature and pH. As with many organic compounds, safety data should be consulted to ensure proper handling and usage.
