Propanoic acid, 2-(4-methylphenoxy)-, ethyl ester

Description:
Propanoic acid, 2-(4-methylphenoxy)-, ethyl ester, also known by its CAS number 70044-36-9, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group. This substance features a propanoic acid backbone with a 4-methylphenoxy group attached to the second carbon, and an ethyl ester moiety. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor. The compound is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits moderate polarity due to the presence of both hydrophobic aromatic and hydrophilic carboxylic acid components. Its chemical structure suggests potential applications in the fields of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as a flavoring or fragrance agent. The presence of the 4-methylphenoxy group may impart specific biological activities or enhance the compound's stability. As with many esters, it may undergo hydrolysis in the presence of water, reverting to its acid and alcohol components. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance.
