methyl 8-methylnonanoate

Description:

Methyl 8-methylnonanoate, with the CAS number 5129-54-4, is an ester derived from the reaction of methanol and 8-methylnonanoic acid. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a fruity odor, characteristic of many esters. It has a relatively low boiling point and is soluble in organic solvents, making it useful in various applications, including flavoring and fragrance formulations. The molecular structure features a long hydrocarbon chain, which contributes to its hydrophobic properties. Methyl 8-methylnonanoate is often studied for its potential use in the synthesis of more complex organic compounds and may exhibit interesting biological activities. As with many esters, it is important to handle this substance with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Proper safety measures should be taken when working with this chemical in laboratory or industrial settings.
