Caprylic acid methyl ester Chemical Properties,Uses,Production

Description

Methyl octanoate has a powerful, winey, fruity, and orange-like odor with an oily, somewhat orange taste. Prepared from coconut fatty acids by alcoholysis in the presence of gaseous HCL.

Chemical Properties

clear colorless liquid

Occurrence

Reported found in apples, apricot, orange juice, coconut, pineapple, pear, strawberry, citrus peel oils, grapes, papaya, blackberry, kohlrabi, peas, potato, tomato, clove bud, pepper, many cheeses, butter, hop oil, cognac, rum, cider, grape wines, black tea, durian (Durio zibethinus), olive, passion fruit, plum, plumcot, mushrooms, starfruit, fruit brandies, quince, soursop, wort, cherimoya, kiwifruit, mountain papaya, custard apple, nectarine, naranjilla, lamb’s lettuce, mussels, cape gooseberry, spineless monkey orange, pawpaw and rooibus tea (Aspalathus linearis)

Uses

Intermediate for caprylic acid detergents, emulsifiers, wetting agents, stabilizers, resins, lubricants, plasticizers, flavoring.

Preparation

From coconut fatty acids by alcoholysis in the presence of gaseous HCl

Definition

ChEBI: A fatty acid methyl ester resulting from the formal condensation of the carboxy group of octanoic acid with the hydroxy group of methanol.

General Description

A colorless liquid. Flash point 130°F. Insoluble in water and about the same density as water. Used to make other chemicals.

Air & Water Reactions

Insoluble in water.

Reactivity Profile

Caprylic acid methyl ester 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.

Health Hazard

Inhalation or contact with material may irritate or burn skin and eyes. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may cause pollution.

Purification Methods

Pass the ester through alumina and distil it before use. [Beilstein 2 IV 986.]
