CAS 62391-99-5: 2-isopropylvaleric acid
Description:2-Isopropylvaleric acid, with the CAS number 62391-99-5, is a branched-chain fatty acid characterized by its unique structure, which includes a valeric acid backbone with an isopropyl group at the second carbon position. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and has a distinctive odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The presence of the carboxylic acid functional group imparts acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as esterification and amidation. 2-Isopropylvaleric acid is of interest in organic synthesis and may be used in the production of esters for flavoring and fragrance applications. Additionally, its branched structure can influence its physical properties, such as boiling point and melting point, compared to straight-chain fatty acids. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance.
