[1] [2] In physical and analytical chemistry, infrared spectroscopy (IR spectroscopy) is a technique used to identify chemical compounds based on the way infrared radiation is absorbed by the compound. The absorptions in this range do not apply only to bonds in organic molecules.
The FT-IR spectra were recorded using a Nicolet 170SX or a JASCO FT/IR-410 spectrometer. For spectra recorded in the Nicolet spectrometer, the data were stored at intervals of 0.5 cm −1 in the 4,000 – 2,000 cm −1 region and of 0.25 cm −1 in the 2,000 – 400 cm −1 region and the spectral resolution was 0.25 cm −1.
Methyl benzoate can be isolated from the freshwater fern Salvinia molesta. [3] It is one of many compounds that is attractive to males of various species of orchid bees, which apparently gather the chemical to synthesize pheromones; it is commonly used as bait to attract and collect these bees for study.
Benzoate plasticizers, such as the glycol-, diethyleneglycol-, and triethyleneglycol esters, are obtained by transesterification of methyl benzoate with the corresponding diol. [22] These plasticizers, which are used similarly to those derived from terephthalic acid ester, represent alternatives to phthalates .
Ethyl benzoate, C 9 H 10 O 2, is an ester formed by the condensation of benzoic acid and ethanol. It is a colorless liquid that is almost insoluble in water, but miscible with most organic solvents. It is a colorless liquid that is almost insoluble in water, but miscible with most organic solvents.
The numbers are included in the name to avoid ambiguity about the position of the groups, and "tri" indicates that there are three identical methyl groups. If one of the methyl groups attached to the third carbon atom were instead an ethyl group, then the name would be 3-ethyl-2,3-dimethylpentane.
The chemical compound isobutyl acetate, also known as 2-methylpropyl ethanoate (IUPAC name) or β-methylpropyl acetate, is a common solvent.It is produced from the esterification of isobutanol with acetic acid.
Diethylbenzene is used in a mixture with methyl and/or ethyl biphenyls as a low temperature heat transfer fluid. [2] Diethylbenzene is dehydrogenated to give divinylbenzene (DVB): C 6 H 4 (C 2 H 5) 2 → C 6 H 4 (C 2 H 3) 2 + 2 H 2. DVB is used in the production of crosslinked polystyrene. [3]
