| | Homosalate Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Liquid. | | Uses | Homosalate used as a UV filter in various personal skin care formulations and cosmetics. | | Uses | UV screen, analgesic | | Uses | homosalate is a chemical uVB absorber included in the FDA’s Category I Sunscreen Chemical list. Its approved usage level is 4 to 15 percent by the FDA and 10 percent by the european union’s Cosmetic Directive. | | Definition | A homolog of menthyl salicylate. | | Brand name | Eusolex (Rona
Laboratories, Great Britain); Heliophan (Greeff). | | General Description | Viscous or light yellow to slightly tan liquid or oil. | | Air & Water Reactions | Homosalate will hydrolyze under basic conditions. . Insoluble in water. | | Reactivity Profile | An ester and a phenol. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides. | | Fire Hazard | Homosalate is probably combustible. | | Flammability and Explosibility | Nonflammable |
