:Propanoic acid, 2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-, ethyl ester
Description:
Propanoic acid, 2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-, ethyl ester, also known by its CAS number 849736-99-8, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group. This compound features a propanoic acid backbone with a hydroxy group and a methoxy group attached to the second and third carbon atoms, respectively. As an ester, it is typically formed through the reaction of propanoic acid with ethanol, resulting in a fruity aroma often associated with esters. The presence of the hydroxy group contributes to its potential solubility in polar solvents, while the methoxy group can influence its reactivity and interaction with other chemical species. This compound may exhibit properties such as moderate volatility and a relatively low boiling point compared to larger esters. It is important in various applications, including as a flavoring agent or in the synthesis of other chemical compounds. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance.
