Application | methyl 2-octanoate is a 2-acetylenic acid ester compound, which is mainly used in high-grade Daily Chemical essence, food flavor can also be added. |
preparation | 2-octanynoic acid methyl ester the preparation is as follows: Step 1: Synthesis of 2, 3-dibromononmethyl ester: add 0.64g(0.67mol) of methyl 2-nonenoate and ML of dichloromethane to a ML three-necked flask, and add 108g (mol) of bromine Dropwise at 0 °c, after completion of the dropwise addition, stirring was continued for 2 hours, and dichloromethane was recovered under reduced pressure to obtain an Intermediate 2, 3-dibromononmethyl ester. Step 2: The 2, 3-dibromo-nonanoic acid methyl ester obtained in step 1 was added to 1.41 of diethyl ether, and 56g (mol) of potassium hydroxide was slowly added at 30 ° C. Within 1 hour, continue to stir at this temperature for 5 hours, after the completion of the reaction, water is added to quench the reaction, liquid separation, organic phase recovery solvent can obtain crude product, after reduced pressure distillation can obtain the finished product 2-octanyl carboxylic acid methyl ester, yield 26%. |
assay | as in the ester determination method (OT-18)-N. The amount of the sample was 1g. The equivalence factor (g) in the calculation is taken as 77.11. Or according to the gas chromatography (GT 10-4) with non polar column method. |
toxicity | GRAS(FEMA). LD50 1530 mg/kg (rat, oral). |
usage limit | FEMA(mg/kg): soft drinks 0.15; Cold drinks 0.30; Candy 1.4; Baked goods 1.4; pudding 1.7; Pectin 13~20; Jelly 0.23. Moderate limit (FDA § 172.515,2000). |
Use | GB 2760-1996 specifies the permitted use of spices. Mainly used in the preparation of cucumber, banana, strawberry, peach, pear, mint, melon, milk, Berry and wine flavor. |
production method | from heptanal by heptanal, octanoic acid, and then esterified. |
