CAS 6938-06-3: Butyl nicotinate

Description: Butyl nicotinate, with the CAS number 6938-06-3, is an ester derived from nicotinic acid and butanol. It is characterized by its molecular structure, which includes a pyridine ring, contributing to its aromatic properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor. Butyl nicotinate is known for its solubility in organic solvents, while being less soluble in water, which is common for many esters. It exhibits properties that make it useful in various applications, including as a flavoring agent, fragrance component, and in cosmetic formulations due to its skin-conditioning effects. Additionally, butyl nicotinate can act as a vasodilator, promoting blood flow, which has implications in topical applications. Safety data indicates that, while it may cause mild irritation upon contact with skin or eyes, it is generally considered to have low toxicity. As with all chemical substances, proper handling and safety precautions should be observed to minimize exposure risks.
