Methallyl acetate

Description:
Methallyl acetate is an organic compound classified as an ester, specifically the acetate of methallyl alcohol. It has the chemical formula C5H10O2 and is characterized by its pleasant, fruity odor, which makes it useful in flavoring and fragrance applications. Methallyl acetate is a colorless liquid that is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. Its boiling point is relatively low, indicating that it can easily evaporate at room temperature. The compound is known for its reactivity, particularly in polymerization processes, where it can participate in various chemical reactions due to the presence of the double bond in its structure. Methallyl acetate is also used in the synthesis of other chemical compounds and as an intermediate in the production of polymers and resins. Safety considerations include handling it in well-ventilated areas and using appropriate personal protective equipment, as it may cause irritation to the skin and eyes upon contact.
