CAS 88606-76-2
:Decanoic acid, 2,3-dichloropropyl ester
Description:
Decanoic acid, 2,3-dichloropropyl ester, also known by its CAS number 88606-76-2, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of esters. It is derived from decanoic acid, a medium-chain fatty acid, and 2,3-dichloropropanol, which introduces chlorine substituents into the molecular structure. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic fatty odor. It is generally insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, reflecting its hydrophobic nature due to the long hydrocarbon chain. The presence of chlorine atoms can impart unique chemical properties, such as increased stability and potential reactivity in various chemical reactions. Decanoic acid esters are often used in applications such as flavoring agents, fragrances, and as intermediates in the synthesis of other chemical compounds. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as the presence of chlorine may raise concerns regarding toxicity and environmental impact.
