Methyl Acetate CAS#79-20-9
Methyl acetate, additionally viewed as MeOAc , acetic acid methyl ester or methyl ethanoate, is a carboxylate ester with the formula CH3COOCH3. It is a flammable liquid with a generally high-quality smell reminiscent of some glues and nail polish removers. Methyl acetate is on event used as a solvent, being weakly polar and lipophilic, on the other hand its shut relative ethyl acetate is a greater ordinary solvent being plenty much less toxic and a lot much less soluble in water. Methyl acetate has a solubility of 25% in water at room temperature. At expanded temperature its solubility in water is plenty higher. Methyl acetate is now no longer impenetrable in the presence of sturdy aqueous bases or aqueous acids. Methyl acetate is VOC exempt.

Product Usage
Methyl acetate may additionally be used for the education of fatty acid methyl esters and triacetin from rapeseed oil by using non-catalytic trans-esterification response underneath super-critical conditions.
Methyl acetate can also be used in the following:
As acyl acceptor in the practise of biodiesel.
Synthesis of ethanol.
Preparation of n-butyl acetate, through transesterification response with n-butanol in the presence of acidic catalysts.
It may additionally additionally be used as a precursor in the synthesis of the following:
acetic anhydride
methyl acrylate
vinyl acetate
ethyl amide
