Propyl acetate

The propyl acetate (also propyl acetates ) are among the organic-chemical substances and form a group of two structurally saturated Carbonsäureestern . They are the esters of acetic acid with the two isomeric propanols: n- propanol and isopropanol . They have the general molecular formula C ₅ H ₁₀ O ₂ and a molar mass of 102.13 g / mol.

presentation

The two propyl acetate can be synthesized on an industrial scale by an acid-catalyzed esterification of acetic acid and 1-propanol or 2-propanol .

The equilibrium reaction can be shifted in the direction of the products by removing water .
