Introduction
2-tert-butylcyclohexyl acetate is an organic compound. The following is an introduction to its properties, uses, preparation methods and safety information:Quality:2-tert-butylcyclohexyl acetate is a colorless liquid with a sweet odor similar to fruit. It has a low vapor pressure and a high flash point at room temperature, making it a non-volatile compound. It is soluble in organic solvents such as alcohols and ethers and slightly soluble in water.Use:2-tert-butylcyclohexyl acetate can be used as a solvent, fragrance, and additive. It can also be used to modify materials such as plastics, rubber, and coatings, with plasticizing and solubilizing effects.Preparation method:2-tert-butylcyclohexyl acetate can be prepared by esterification reaction. A commonly used method is to react cyclohexanone with tert-butanol under acidic conditions to produce 2-tert-butylcyclohexanone, and then add an acid catalyst to carry out an esterification reaction to obtain 2-tert-butylcyclohexylacetate.Safety Information:2-Tert-butylcyclohexyl acetate is generally safe under normal use conditions, but the following matters should still be noted:- Avoid contact with skin and eyes, as it may cause irritation and allergies.- Maintain a well-ventilated environment and avoid inhaling vapors during use.- Avoid contact with strong oxidizing agents and ignition sources to prevent fire or explosion.- Store away from fire and heat sources and keep it sealed to prevent volatilization.
Application
OTBCHA (Ortho Tertiary Butyl Cyclo Hexyl Acetate, CAS 88-41-5), also known as Verdox, Agrumex HC, or Green Acetate, is a high-purity synthetic ester widely used as a fragrance ingredient in the flavor and fragrance industry. It possesses a fresh, sweet, fruity, and woody aroma with apple-like and citrus undertones. In perfumery, it serves as a substantive base note and fixative, blending harmoniously with floral, woody, and fruity accords to enhance longevity and naturalness. It is extensively incorporated into fine perfumes, colognes, soaps, shampoos, laundry detergents, household cleaners, and air fresheners. In cosmetics and personal care, OTBCHA functions as an emollient, skin conditioning agent, and fragrance carrier. It also exhibits excellent stability across a wide pH range, making it suitable for challenging bases such as bleach-containing formulations and acid cleaners. Additionally, OTBCHA serves as an intermediate in the synthesis of other specialty aroma chemicals and as a solvent in industrial formulations. Xinchem offers custom synthesis, custom chemical synthesis, and contract manufacturing of OTBCHA with flexible scaling from R&D to commercial volumes.
