Description

Ethyl isovalerate is a chemical with the formula CH3CH2CH2C(O)CH=CH2. It is an ester of acetic acid and valeric acid. It has a boiling point of 114°C and a density of 0.8994 g/mL at 20°C. Ethyl isovalerate has been shown to be thermally unstable, with significant expansion occurring when heated to 100°C. This chemical has been shown to have antibacterial properties against bacterial strains that are resistant to carvacrol, thymol, and cinnamaldehyde. Ethyl isovalerate also produces propionic acid when mixed with benzoic acid in liquid phase microextraction (LPME). The production of propionic acid may be due to the reaction between ethyl isovalerate and hydrogen fluoride on the surface of activated carbon particles in LPME. Ethyl decanoate can also be produced from this reaction by adding ethyl dec
