CAS 585-07-9: tert-Butyl methacrylate
Description:Tert-Butyl methacrylate (CAS 585-07-9) is an organic compound classified as an ester, specifically a methacrylate. It is characterized by its colorless to pale yellow liquid form and has a characteristic fruity odor. The compound is known for its low volatility and relatively high boiling point compared to other methacrylates. Tert-Butyl methacrylate is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone but has limited solubility in water. It is primarily used in the production of polymers and copolymers, serving as a monomer in various applications, including coatings, adhesives, and plastics due to its ability to enhance flexibility and durability. The compound is also valued for its reactivity in free radical polymerization, making it a useful building block in the synthesis of advanced materials. However, it should be handled with care, as it can be an irritant to the skin and eyes, and appropriate safety measures should be taken during its use and storage.
