Name:Methyl octanoate
Synonyms:
- Methyl caprylate
Brand:Biosynth
Description:Methyl octanoate is a nitro compound with chemical stability that can be used as a model system to study the reaction mechanism of esterification. Methyl octanoate reacts with glycol ether in a two-step reaction. First, methyl octanoate reacts with glycol ether at the ester bond to form an intermediate. The intermediate then reacts with another molecule of glycol ether to form the final product, methyl octanoate. This reaction is catalyzed by metal hydroxides, such as calcium oxide or magnesium oxide.
