:

ethyl 7-oxododecanoate

Description:
Ethyl 7-oxododecanoate, with the CAS number 58262-36-5, is an ester derived from dodecanoic acid (also known as lauric acid) and ethanol. This compound features a carbon chain of twelve carbon atoms, with a ketone functional group located at the seventh carbon position. Ethyl 7-oxododecanoate is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid, exhibiting a pleasant, fruity odor, which makes it potentially useful in flavoring and fragrance applications. Its molecular structure contributes to its solubility in organic solvents while being less soluble in water due to the hydrophobic nature of the long carbon chain. The compound may also exhibit moderate volatility and can participate in various chemical reactions typical of esters, such as hydrolysis and transesterification. Additionally, it may have applications in the synthesis of other organic compounds or as an intermediate in chemical processes. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance.
