Description :
Isopropenyl Acetate (CAS No: 108-22-5) is a clear, colorless liquid ester with a fruity, ethereal odor. It is synthetically produced as the acetate ester of the enol tautomer of acetone. It is primarily used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, especially to prepare acetylacetone and other specialty chemicals.
Isopropenyl Acetate is widely used as a reagent for the acylation of alcohols, phenols, and amines under solvent-free conditions. Its reactivity makes it a valuable building block in the synthesis of fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and polymer intermediates.
It is employed as a solvent for cellulose, plastics, oils, and fats due to its good solubility properties. It also sees use in coatings, printing inks, adhesives, and cleaning fluids, benefiting from its mild odor and rapid evaporation rate.
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place below 30°C away from heat and ignition sources.
Use protective gloves, goggles, and clothing to prevent exposure.
Avoid inhalation and prolonged skin contact; wash hands thoroughly after handling.
Be cautious of its flammability; keep away from sparks and open flames.
Follow standard spill cleanup and waste disposal procedures.
