ethyl 8-oxododecanoate

Description:
Ethyl 8-oxododecanoate, with the CAS number 97037-83-7, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group, which is derived from dodecanoic acid (a fatty acid) and ethanol. This compound features a carbon chain of twelve carbon atoms, with a ketone functional group located at the eighth carbon position, contributing to its classification as an oxo compound. Ethyl 8-oxododecanoate is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic fatty odor, making it relevant in flavor and fragrance applications. Its molecular structure suggests it may exhibit moderate solubility in organic solvents while being less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The presence of the oxo group may also impart unique reactivity, potentially allowing for further chemical transformations. Additionally, this compound may have applications in the synthesis of other chemical entities or as an intermediate in various industrial processes. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
