Isobutyl acetate Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

description

Isobutyl acetate, also known as n-propyl acetate, is the esterfication product between acetic acid and 2-butanol. It is a water-white liquid with flavor of soft fruit ester. It is slightly soluble in water, miscible with ethanol, ethyl ether as well as many other kinds of organic solvent including alcohol, ether and hydrocarbon. It can be mainly used as the diluent of nitro-lacquer and perchlorethylene paint and the solvents of nitrocellulose and lacquer as well as the substitution solvent of butyl acetate and methyl isobutyl ketone. It can also be used as a component of the flavoring agent. It can also be used as the diluent of plastic printing paste and the extraction agent in the pharmaceutical industry.
Sec-butyl acetate has excellent capability of dissolving many substances. It can be industrially applied as the solvent for manufacturing of nitrocellulose paint, acrylic paint, polyurethane paint, etc., these paints can also be used as an aircraft wing paint, artificial leather coatings and automotive coatings. Its dissolving capability is similar as n-butyl acetate and isobutyl acetate. In the coating formulation, it can be widely adopted for substitution of n-butyl acetate and isobutyl acetate. In metallic paints, people can apply butyl acetate to dissolve the cellulose acetate butyrate to obtain 15% to 20% solution.
The above information is edited by the chemicalbook of Dai Xiongfeng.

Chemical Properties

It is a water-white liquid with soft fruit ester flavor. It is miscible with a variety of organic solvents such as alcohols, ethers and hydrocarbons.

Take appropriate amount as limit (FDA§172.515,2000).

Production method

It can be obtained via the esterfication between iso-butanol and acetic anhydride in the presence of sulfuric acid. Mix the acetic anhydride and iso-butanol solution followed by adding drop wise of sulfuric acid. Heat for reflux of 5-6 h after a bit cooling, wash the refluxed liquid with water for 2-3 times. Use sodium carbonate for neutralizing with sodium carbonate, wash with water until neutralized, dry over calcium chloride with vacuum distillation in oil bath to derive the finished products.

Description

Isobutyl acetate has a fruity (currant-pear), floral (hyacinth-rose) odor and a characteristic ether-like, slightly bitter flavor. May be prepared by direct esterification of isobutyl alcohol with acetic acid.

Chemical Properties

Isobutyl acetate is a colorless liquid with a fruit flavor. Isobutyl acetate is moisture sensitive, incompatible with ignition sources, moisture, excess heat, strong oxidizing agents, and strong bases; on decomposition, it releases carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. It is used for nitrification fiber and paint solvents, chemical reagents, and modulation spices

Chemical Properties

Isobutyl acetate, also known as 2-methylpropyl ethanoate (IUPAC name) or β-methylpropyl acetate, is a common solvent. It is produced from the esterifi cation of isobutanol with acetic acid. It is used as a solvent for lacquer and nitrocellulose. Like many esters, it has a fruity or fl oral smell at low concentrations and occurs naturally in raspberries, pears, and other plants. At higher concentrations, the odor can be unpleasant and may cause symptoms of CNS depression, such as nausea, dizziness, and headache

Chemical Properties

Butyl acetates are colorless or yellowish liquids with pleasant, fruity odors. There are 4 isomers.

Physical properties

Colorless liquid with a fruity odor. Experimentally determined detection and recognition odor threshold concentrations were 1.7 mg/m3 (360 ppbv) and 2.4 mg/m3 (510 ppbv), respectively (Hellman and Small, 1974).

Occurrence

Reported found in, apple, apricot, banana, currants, guava, grapes, melon, pear, blackcurrant, papaya, pineapple, strawberry, vinegar, wheat bread, Parmesan and Gruyere cheese, beef fat, beer, cognac, rum, cider, whiskies, sherry, grape wines, port, olive, cocoa, passion fruit, plum, starfruit, bantu beer, plum and grape brandy, mango, tamarind, apple brandy, figs, plum wine, litchi, sake, nectarine, naranjilla fruit, Cape gooseberry and Roman chamomile oil.

Uses

Solvent; flavoring

Uses

Isobutyl acetate is used as a solvent and as aflavoring agent.

Uses

Isobutyl Acetate is a flavoring agent that is a clear colorless liquid with a fruity odor resembling banana when diluted. it is soluble in alcohol, propylene glycol, most fixed oils, and mineral oil, and slightly soluble in water. it is obtained by synthesis.

Definition

ChEBI: The acetate ester of isobutanol.

Preparation

By direct esterification of isobutyl alcohol with acetic acid.

Production Methods

Isobutyl acetate may be made from methyl isobutyl ketone. It may also be made by treating isobutanol with acetic acid in the presence of catalysts. The Tischenko reaction of acetaldehyde with isobutyraldehyde yields a mixture of isobutyl acetate with ethyl acetate and isobutyl isobutyrate.

Aroma threshold values

Detection: 65 to 880 ppb

Taste threshold values

Taste characteristics at 30 ppm: sweet fruity with a banana tutti-frutti note.

General Description

A clear colorless liquid with a fruity odor. Flash point 64°F. Less dense than water (6.2 lb / gal) and insoluble in water. Vapors are heavier than air .

Air & Water Reactions

Highly flammable. Insoluble in water.

Reactivity Profile

Isobutyl acetate reacts exothermically with acids to give alcohols and other acids. May react sufficiently exothermically with strong oxidizing acids to ignite the reaction products. Reactions with bases also generate heat. Combination with strong reducing agents (alkali metals and hydrides) generates flammable hydrogen.

Hazard

Flammable, dangerous fire risk.

Health Hazard

Isobutyl acetate is more toxic but less of anirritant than n-butyl acetate. The toxic symp toms include headache, drowsiness, irritationof upper respiratory tract, and anesthesia.A 4-hour exposure to 8000 ppm was lethalto rats. It produced mild to moderate irri tation on rabbits’ skin. The irritation ineyes was also mild to moderate. The LD50oral value in rabbit is within the range4800 mg/kg.

Health Hazard
