ETHYL TRANS-4-DECENOATE(CAS#76649-16-6)

Introduction

Trans-4-decenoic acid ethyl ester (i.e., (Z)-4-Decenoic acid ethyl ester) is an organic compound. The following introduces its properties, uses, preparation, and safety information:Properties: Trans-4-decenoic acid ethyl ester is a colorless or pale yellow liquid with a fruity odor. It is soluble in many organic solvents at room temperature, such as ethanol, ether, and benzene. It can also be used as an intermediate in the synthesis of organic compounds.Preparation: Trans-4-decenoic acid ethyl ester can be obtained by reacting trans-4-decenoic acid with ethanol. Trans-4-decenoic acid can be prepared from decene through catalytic hydrogenation and oxidation reactions. Avoid direct skin contact and inhalation; use appropriate protective measures if necessary, such as gloves and respirators. In case of contact with skin or eyes, rinse immediately with water. It should be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place, away from fire sources and oxidizers.
