Description

Prenyl acetate is a prenylated polyhydric alcohol with the chemical formula C10H22O4. It is a colorless liquid with a pleasant smell. Prenyl acetate can be used as an additive to make polymers such as polyesters or polyurethanes more flexible, or in the synthesis of cationic polymerization initiators, which are used in the production of films and coatings. Prenyl acetate has been shown to have physiological effects on animals by acting as an anti-inflammatory agent. Prenyl acetate may also act as a nucleophile that reacts with carboxylic acids to form esters, such as isopropyl palmitate.
