Product Information

• Name: Iron(III) 2-ethylhexanoate in 1,2,3,4-tetramethylbenzene
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Iron(III) 2-ethylhexanoate is a ferric salt that is used as an acid catalyst for the synthesis of ethyl esters. It also acts as an oxidant and can be used in organic chemistry as a chemical reagent to produce ethyl esters from carboxylic acids. Iron(III) 2-ethylhexanoate reacts with iron oxide particles to form ferric hydroxide, which is then purified by calcium carbonate. This compound also has potential applications in nanotechnology, where it has been shown to be able to act as a catalyst for the synthesis of nanowires. The adsorption kinetics of this compound have been studied using various solvents and metal hydroxides, showing that the rate of adsorption depends on the type of solvent and metal hydroxide used.; Iron(III) 2-ethylhexanoate is synthesized by reacting ethyl linoleate with iron oxide particles and calcium stearate
