(+)-mono-(1S)-menthyl phthalate

Description:
(+)-Mono-(1S)-menthyl phthalate, with the CAS number 53623-42-0, is an ester derived from phthalic acid and menthol. This compound is characterized by its chiral nature, as indicated by the presence of the (1S) configuration, which contributes to its specific optical activity. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and has a pleasant minty aroma, making it suitable for use in fragrances and flavorings. The compound is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water, which is a common trait for many esters. Its chemical structure allows it to participate in various chemical reactions, including hydrolysis and transesterification. Additionally, (+)-mono-(1S)-menthyl phthalate is often studied for its potential applications in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries, particularly for its properties as a plasticizer and its ability to enhance the stability and release of active ingredients. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance.
