Butyl butyrate, or butyl butanoate, is an organic compound that is an ester formed by the condensation of butyric acid and n-butanol. It is a clear, colorless liquid that is insoluble in water, but miscible with ethanol and diethyl ether. Its refractive index is 1.406 at 20 °C.
The word "butyl" is derived from butyric acid, a four-carbon carboxylic acid found in rancid butter. [1] The name "butyric acid" comes from Latin butyrum , butter . Subsequent preferred IUPAC names for alkyl radicals in the series are simply named from the Greek number that indicates the number of carbon atoms in the group: pentyl , hexyl ...
Cervonic acid (or docosahexaenoic acid) has 22 carbons, is found in fish oil, is a 4,7,10,13,16,19-hexa unsaturated fatty acid. In the human body its generation depends on consumption of omega 3 essential fatty acids (e.g., ALA or EPA), but the conversion process is inefficient. [ 22 ]
Butyric acid that is produced via butyrate fermentation is a common food additive and found within products including butter, milk, cheese, and vegetable oils. Some species within the genus Clostridium are capable of producing biochemicals and biofuels.
