1,4-Cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid diethyl ester(CAS#72903-27-6)

Introduction

1,4-Cyclohexane diethyl carboxylate, also known as diethyl cyclohadipate, is a colorless liquid. The following is an introduction to its properties, uses, preparation methods and safety information:Properties: It has a strong fruity aroma and can be used as a spice. It can also be used as a solvent and softener.Use:1,4-Cyclohexane dicarboxylate is widely used in industrial fields such as coatings, dyes, rubber, and plastics.Preparation method:1,4-Cyclohexane diethyl carboxylate is generally formed by reacting cyclohexane with ethylene and sodium hydroxide to form cyclohexanedione. Cyclohexanedione is then reacted with ethanol to produce diethyl 1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxyl acid.Safety Information:1,4-cyclohexane diethyl carboxylate is relatively safe, but appropriate safety measures are still required. It can cause eye and skin irritation and should be avoided in direct contact when used. Protective gloves and glasses should be worn when handling. Keep away from fire sources and avoid contact with oxidants and acids to avoid triggering dangerous reactions.

Application
1,4-Cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid diethyl ester (CAS 72903-27-6), also known as Fructalate, is a versatile clear liquid diester used as a fragrance ingredient, polymer building block, and chemical intermediate. In the flavor and fragrance industry, it delivers a long-lasting, powerful, and stable fruity, raspberry, apple, and ethereal note. Its excellent chemical stability in both alkaline and acidic environments makes it particularly valuable for laundry powders, fabric softeners, and air care applications. As a monomer or intermediate, 1,4-Cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid diethyl ester is used in the production of specialty polyesters and coatings, contributing to enhanced durability and flexibility for automotive and industrial uses. It also plays a role in pharmaceutical synthesis as a building block for anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs, and in the development of biodegradable polymers and drug delivery systems. This diester is also utilized in permeation-enhancing formulations and agrochemicals.
