2-Ethylbutanoic acid

Description:

2-Ethylbutanoic acid, with the CAS number 88-09-5, is a branched-chain fatty acid characterized by its carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) attached to a four-carbon butane backbone, with an ethyl group on the second carbon. This compound is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and has a distinctive, pungent odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic alkyl chains. 2-Ethylbutanoic acid is known for its applications in the synthesis of esters, which are used in flavoring and fragrance industries, as well as in the production of surfactants and plasticizers. The compound exhibits typical acid properties, including the ability to donate protons in aqueous solutions, and can participate in various chemical reactions such as esterification and amidation. Its safety profile indicates that it should be handled with care, as it can cause irritation to the skin and eyes upon contact.
