METHYL LAURATE Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Description

Methyl laurate has a fatty, floral odor reminiscent of wine. It can be used as a flavor ingredient in foods and pharmaceuticals, and as fragrance in perfumes. As an intermediate, methyl laurate is used for detergents, emulsifier, wetting agents, stabilizers, lubricants, plasticizers, textiles, plastics, and cosmetics. It can also be used as lubricant in textile spin finishes and emollient in cosmetics. It can be used as solvent, co-solvent, oil carrier for agric, pesticides and herbicides. It is also used as defoamer in food-contact coatings and paper/paperboards and it is used in resin-bonded filters for food contact.

Description

Methyl laurate has a fatty, floral odor reminiscent of wine. May be prepared by prolonged boiling of lauric acid with methanol in the presence of sulfuric acid. Methyl Laurate is a flavour ketone produced in a reaction biocatalyzed by microencapsulated fungal spores. Also used in production of biodiesel.

Chemical Properties

Methyl laurate has a fatty, floral odor reminiscent of wine.

Chemical Properties

clear colorless to slightly yellow liquid

Occurrence

Reported found in orris absolute, strawberry, apple, bilberry, rum, coconut, grapes, melon, papaya, pineapple, blackberry, mustard, cheeses, hop oil, cognac, white wine, cocoa, oats, plumcot, elderberry juice, loquat, babaco fruit (Carica pentagona Heilborn), Bourbon vanilla, mountain papaya, Chinese cabbage, mussels, cape gooseberry, pawpaw, banana, berries and blue cheese

Uses

Methyl dodecanoate used in production of biodiesel. It has been used in selective synthesis of the secondary amide surfactant, N-methyl lauroylethanolamide. It is also utilized as emollients, perfuming agents skin conditioning.

Uses

Methyl laurate has been used in selective synthesis of the secondary amide surfactant, N-methyl lauroylethanolamide.

Definition

ChEBI: A fatty acid methyl ester of lauric acid.

Taste threshold values

Taste characteristics at 20 ppm: waxy, creamy, fatty with soapy, coconut nuances

General Description

Hydrogenation of methyl laurate catalyzed by diatomite supported Pd-M (M=Cu, Co, Ni) bimetal nanocatalysts has been reported. IR absorption spectrum of methyl laurate in carbon tetrachloride and carbon disulphide solutions has been compared with the spectra of derivatives deuterated in the ω-methyl group and α-methylene groups.

Flammability and Explosibility

Non flammable

Purification Methods

Pass the ester through alumina before use, and distil it in a vacuum. [Beilstein 2 IV 1090.]
