:Propanoic acid, 2-(benzoyloxy)-2-methyl-, methyl ester
Description:
Propanoic acid, 2-(benzoyloxy)-2-methyl-, methyl ester, also known by its CAS number 87532-07-8, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group. This compound features a propanoic acid backbone with a methyl ester and a benzoyloxy substituent at the second carbon. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant odor. The presence of the benzoyloxy group contributes to its aromatic characteristics, while the methyl ester enhances its solubility in organic solvents. This compound is likely to exhibit moderate polarity due to the ester and carboxylic acid functionalities, influencing its reactivity and interactions in various chemical environments. It may be used in organic synthesis, as a flavoring agent, or in the production of pharmaceuticals. 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 potential hazards associated with this compound.
