:2-Methylphenyl acetate
Description:
2-Methylphenyl acetate, also known as o-tolyl acetate, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group, derived from the reaction of 2-methylphenol (o-cresol) and acetic acid. It has a molecular formula of C9H10O2 and features a distinctive aromatic ring structure, which contributes to its chemical properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a sweet, fruity odor, making it useful in the fragrance and flavoring industries. It is moderately soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. 2-Methylphenyl acetate exhibits low toxicity, but like many esters, it can be an irritant to the skin and eyes. Its boiling point and density are typical for esters, and it can undergo hydrolysis in the presence of water, reverting to its parent alcohol and acetic acid. This compound is utilized in various applications, including as a solvent and in the synthesis of other chemical compounds.
