N-PENTYL PROPIONATE Structural

What is N-PENTYL PROPIONATE?

Chemical properties

CLEAR COLOURLESS LIQUID

The Uses of N-PENTYL PROPIONATE

Pentyl propionate, an ester, has been employed for the evaluation of experimental values of HEm and VEm at 318.15K for the binary mixtures of alkyl propanoates with alkanes.

Definition

ChEBI: A propanoate ester of pentan-1-ol.

General Description

Colorless liquid with an apple-like odor. Floats on water.

Reactivity Profile

N-PENTYL PROPIONATE is an ester. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides. Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating vapors and toxic gases, such as carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, may be formed when involved in fire [USCG, 1999].

Health Hazard

Exposure can cause irritation of eyes, nose and throat.

Fire Hazard

Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating vapors and toxic gases, such as carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, may be formed when involved in fire.

Flammability and Explosibility

Flammable

Safety Profile

Low toxicity by ingestion and skin contact. An eye irritant. A flammable liquid. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.
