General Description
Diethyl succinate(DES) is a diethyl ester with succinate molecules. It has two ester groups and is majorly used in fragrances. It produced by the esterification of succinic acid with ethanol.
Flammability and Explosibility
Non flammable
Biochem/physiol Actions
Taste at 10-100 ppm
Safety Profile
Mildly toxic by ingestion. A skin and eye irritant. Combustible liquid. Reaction with ethyl trifluoroacetate + sodium hydride may cause a fire or explosion. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes. See also ESTERS.
Purification Methods
Dry the succinate with MgSO4, and distil it at 15mm pressure. [Beilstein 2 IV 1914.]
