Benzoic acid, 4-(3-hydroxy-1-propenyl)-, ethyl ester

Description:
Benzoic acid, 4-(3-hydroxy-1-propenyl)-, ethyl ester, also known by its CAS number 89113-43-9, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group derived from benzoic acid and an allylic alcohol. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant, fruity odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. The presence of the propenyl group contributes to its reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including esterification and polymerization. Benzoic acid derivatives are often studied for their applications in the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries, particularly for their antimicrobial properties and as flavoring agents. Additionally, the compound may exhibit biological activity, which can be of interest in medicinal chemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with all chemical substances.
