CAS 88395-81-7
:Butanoic acid, 2-chloro-, tetradecyl ester
Description:
Butanoic acid, 2-chloro-, tetradecyl ester, with the CAS number 88395-81-7, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of esters. It is characterized by the presence of a butanoic acid moiety, which contributes to its fatty acid properties, and a tetradecyl group, indicating a long-chain alkyl structure. The presence of a chlorine atom at the second carbon position of the butanoic acid backbone introduces unique reactivity and polarity characteristics. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor, common to fatty acid esters. Its hydrophobic tetradecyl chain enhances its solubility in organic solvents while limiting its solubility in water. The ester functional group makes it susceptible to hydrolysis under acidic or basic conditions, which can lead to the release of butanoic acid and tetradecanol. Due to its structure, this compound may exhibit applications in the fields of surfactants, emulsifiers, or as intermediates in organic synthesis. Safety data should be consulted for handling and potential hazards associated with this chemical.
