Ethyl phenylacetate, molecular formula: C10H12O2, CAS No.: 101-97-3, boiling point: 229℃, relative density: 1.0333, refractive index: 1.4980, flash point :98℃, appearance: colorless or nearly colorless transparent liquid, with strong and sweet honey aroma. It is insoluble in water and can be mixed with ethanol, ether, benzene and chloroform. It is used to make all kinds of flower flavor daily flavors. It is used as the solvent and the auxiliary agent for perfumes, as well as in organic synthesis, as an intermediate for pesticides and medicines.
The synthesis method is obtained by reflux reaction of phenylacetonitrile, ethanol and sulfuric acid. Ethyl phenylacetate can also be synthesized by esterification of phenylacetic acid and ethanol with sulfuric acid in 90% yield. Another production method is obtained by hydrolysis and esterification of phenylacetamide. There is also phenylacetic acid method: phenylacetic acid and ethanol by esterification.
Storage and transportation: Keep away from heat sources, sparks and flames. Ignition away from source. Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources.
