Methyl cyclohexanecarboxylate

Description:
Methyl cyclohexanecarboxylate, with the CAS number 4630-82-4, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group. It is derived from cyclohexanecarboxylic acid and methanol, resulting in a structure that features a cyclohexane ring with a carboxylate group and a methyl ester. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant odor, making it useful in various applications, including as a solvent and in the synthesis of other organic compounds. Methyl cyclohexanecarboxylate is relatively non-toxic, but like many esters, it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Its solubility in organic solvents and limited solubility in water reflects its hydrophobic nature, which is common for many esters. Additionally, it may undergo typical ester reactions, such as hydrolysis and transesterification, under appropriate conditions. Overall, methyl cyclohexanecarboxylate is a versatile compound with applications in chemical synthesis and potentially in fragrance formulations.
