CAS 623-66-5

Octanoic anhydride

Description:

Octanoic anhydride, with the CAS number 623-66-5, is a chemical compound derived from octanoic acid, which is an eight-carbon saturated fatty acid. This anhydride is characterized by its structure, which consists of two octanoic acid molecules linked through an anhydride bond, resulting in the loss of water. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive fatty odor. Octanoic anhydride is known for its reactivity, particularly in esterification and acylation reactions, making it useful in organic synthesis and the production of various esters. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. Safety considerations include its potential to cause skin and eye irritation, and appropriate handling measures should be taken to minimize exposure. Additionally, it is important to store this compound in a cool, dry place away from incompatible materials to ensure stability and safety. Overall, octanoic anhydride serves as a valuable intermediate in chemical synthesis and industrial applications.
