5-Methylhexanoic acid

Description:

5-Methylhexanoic acid, with the CAS number 628-46-6, is a branched-chain fatty acid characterized by its six-carbon backbone and a methyl group located at the fifth carbon position. This compound is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and has a distinctive odor reminiscent of fatty acids. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The molecular formula of 5-methylhexanoic acid is C7H14O2, indicating the presence of a carboxylic acid functional group, which contributes to its acidic properties. This substance is used in various applications, including as an intermediate in the synthesis of esters, in the production of surfactants, and in the formulation of lubricants and plasticizers. Additionally, it can be involved in the production of specialty chemicals and is of interest in the field of organic synthesis. Safety considerations include handling it with care, as it can cause irritation to the skin and eyes.
