:Heptanoic acid, 3-oxo-, ethyl ester
Description:
Heptanoic acid, 3-oxo-, ethyl ester, also known as ethyl 3-oxoheptanoate, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group derived from heptanoic acid and a ketone group at the third carbon position. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a fruity odor, indicative of its ester nature. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic heptanoic acid backbone. The compound is often utilized in organic synthesis and as a flavoring agent in the food industry, owing to its pleasant aroma. Its chemical structure allows for various reactions, including hydrolysis and transesterification, making it valuable in the production of other chemical derivatives. Safety data indicates that, like many esters, it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from heat sources is recommended to maintain its stability.

CAS:<p>Ethyl 3-oxoenanthate is a homologue of the naturally occurring polyester, 3-oxo-1,4-dianhydrohexane. It is synthesized from ethyl acetoacetate and methacrylic acid in the presence of hydrofluoric acid. The resulting product is a mixture of dihydro and trisubstituted methyl ketones that can be used as an acetoxylation or oxidant. Ethyl 3-oxoenanthate has been shown to have cardiovascular disease blocking properties. This compound also has the ability to crosslink with other molecules and can be used as a synthetic intermediate in the production of stereospecific compounds.</p>Formula:C9H16O3Purity:Min. 95%Color and Shape:Clear Colourless LiquidMolecular weight:172.22 g/mol
