Introduction
Ethyl acetylcaprylate 2-acetylcaprylate, also known as ethyl acetylcaprylate or ethyl acetyloctachlate, is an organic compound.
Quality:
Ethyl 2-acetyl caprylate is a colorless to yellow liquid with an aromatic flavor at room temperature. It is soluble in organic solvents such as alcohols, ethers, and chlorinated hydrocarbons, but almost insoluble in water.
Use:
Ethyl 2-acetylcaprylate is mainly used as a solvent in industry and can be used in paints, coatings, inks, offset inks, pigments and adhesives, among others.
Method:
The preparation of ethyl 2-acetylcaprylate can be obtained by the reaction of caprylic acid with acetyl chloride. The specific step is that caprylic acid reacts with acetic anhydride under the catalysis of esterifying agent to generate 2-acetyl caprylate ethyl ester.
Safety Information:
Ethyl 2-acetyl caprylate is an organic solvent that may cause irritation in contact with the skin, eyes, or respiratory tract. Wear personal protective equipment such as gloves, glasses and face shields when in use. Avoid contact with ignition sources and high temperatures to avoid fire or explosion. During storage, keep away from fire and store in a cool, dry place.
