| Ethyl 3-phenylpropionate Usage And Synthesis |
Chemical Properties | clear colorless to light yellow liquid | Chemical Properties | Ethyl 3-phenylpropionate has an ethereal, rum, fruity, floral odor. | Occurrence | Reported found in rum, passion fruit, plum brandy, caja fruit (Spondias lutea L.) and checkur (Alpinia sessilis). | Uses | Ethyl 3-phenylpropionate is used as an active pharmaceutical ingredient intermediate. It is also used in the synthesis of pyrimidine based inhibitors of cyclin-dependant kinases. | Definition | ChEBI: Ethyl 3-phenylpropanoate is a fatty acid ester. | Preparation | By hydrogenation of the corresponding ethyl cinnamate in the presence of nickel in alcohol solution. | Aroma threshold values | Detection: 17 to 40 ppb | Synthesis Reference(s) | The Journal of Organic Chemistry, 50, p. 3406, 1985 DOI: 10.1021/jo00218a033 Synthetic Communications, 22, p. 2683, 1992 DOI: 10.1080/00397919208021668 Tetrahedron Letters, 42, p. 781, 2001 DOI: 10.1016/S0040-4039(00)02176-6 | General Description | Clear colorless liquid. | Air & Water Reactions | Insoluble in water. | Reactivity Profile | Ethyl 3-phenylpropionate is an ester. 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 | The flash point of Ethyl 3-phenylpropionate has not been determined. but Ethyl 3-phenylpropionate is probably combustible. |
