Description

Ethyl tiglate is a carbonyl compound that belongs to the class of methyl ketones. It has a dry weight of 172.21 g/mol and is soluble in water, ethanol, benzene, ether, chloroform and carbon tetrachloride. Ethyl tiglate has a reactive molecule with an acidic pH and inhibits the growth of bacteria by binding to fatty acids at the cell membrane. This process causes the cell membrane to break down and allows other substances to enter into the cell and kill it. In vitro tests have shown that ethyl tiglate has a strong inhibitory effect on bacterial growth.
