2-Phenylethyl octanoate

Description:
2-Phenylethyl octanoate, with the CAS number 5457-70-5, is an ester formed from the reaction of 2-phenylethanol and octanoic acid. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant, floral aroma, making it useful in the fragrance and flavor industries. It has a relatively low volatility, which contributes to its stability and longevity in formulations. The molecular structure features a phenyl group attached to an ethyl chain, which is further connected to an octanoate group, imparting both hydrophobic and lipophilic characteristics. This dual nature allows it to be soluble in various organic solvents while being less soluble in water. 2-Phenylethyl octanoate is often utilized in perfumes, cosmetics, and food flavorings due to its aromatic properties. Additionally, it may exhibit some antimicrobial activity, making it of interest in food preservation and safety applications. As with many esters, it is generally considered to have low toxicity, but safety data should always be consulted for specific applications.
