Tridecanoic acid, propyl ester, also known as propyl tridecanoate, is an ester derived from tridecanoic acid and propanol. It is characterized by its long carbon chain, which contributes to its hydrophobic properties and influences its physical state at room temperature. Typically, this compound appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a mild, fatty odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The esterification process results in a compound that is generally stable under normal conditions, though it may undergo hydrolysis in the presence of strong acids or bases. Tridecanoic acid, propyl ester is often used in the formulation of fragrances, flavorings, and as a lubricant or surfactant in various industrial applications. Its relatively high boiling point and low volatility make it suitable for applications requiring stability at elevated temperatures. As with many esters, it may exhibit low toxicity, but safety data should always be consulted for specific handling and exposure guidelines.
