| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Production Methods]
Producted from Dimethyl ethyl carbinol by
esterification with acetic acid under azeotropic
conditions, or with Acetic anhydride. | [General Description]
Colorless to yellow watery liquid with a weak odor of bananas. Floats on water. Produces irritating vapor. | [Air & Water Reactions]
Highly flammable. | [Reactivity Profile]
T-PENTYL ACETATE 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. | [Health Hazard]
INHALATION AND INGESTION: Irritates the mucous membrane, depresses the central nervous system and is narcotic. Damage to kidney, liver, and lung can occur. Ingestion may irritate gastro-intestinal tract. EYES: Irritation. SKIN: Irritation. |
| Questions And Answer | Back Directory | [Aroma]
Fresh-minty, fruity odor, not quite as sweet
as the common iso-Amyl acetate.
Occurs in acetylated Fusel oil and is therefore a frequently appearing impurity in Amyl acetate made from Fuse] oil directly. Occasionally used in masking odors for industrial purposes. Finds little or no use in perfumes, and is not mentioned specifically as a flavor chemical. |
