Acetates

n-Butyl Acetate

CAS: 123-86-4
Acetic acid n-butyl ester

n-Butyl Acetate is a clear, moderately volatile liquid with a characteristic ester odor. It is miscible with all conventional solvents such as alcohols, ketones, aldehydes, ethers, glycols, glycol ethers, aromatic hydrocarbons and aliphatic hydrocarbons. Its solubility in water is limited.

Pentyl Acetate

CAS: 628-63-7*), 624-41-9, 123-92-2
Reaction mass of 2-methylbutyl acetate and pentyl acetate, Mixture of isomeric pentyl esters of acetic acid (n-/iso-pentyl acetate; n-/iso-amyl acetate)

Pentyl Acetate is a clear, medium-volatility liquid with a mild odour typical for esters. It is miscible with most common organic solvents, but practically insoluble in water. Pentyl Acetate is similar to butyl acetate in solvent power and diluent tolerance, but evaporates slower.

 

Glycol Ether Acetates

Butylglycol Acetate

CAS: 112-07-2
Ethylene glycol monobutyl ether acetate, Acetic acid 2-butoxyethyl ester, 2-butoxyethyl acetate

Butylglycol Acetate is a clear, low-volatility liquid with a faint ester odour. It is miscible with many common organic solvents, e. g. alcohols, ketones, aldehydes, ethers, glycols, and glycol ethers, but is only very sparingly soluble with water. Due to its ether bonds and ester group, Butylglycol Acetate enters into the typical reactions of this class of substances.
