- Ethyl acetate is the
organic compound with the formula CH3COOCH2CH3.
- It is also called as
ethyl ethanoate, commonly abbreviated EtOAc or EA.
- This colorless liquid
has a characteristic, not unpleasant smell (similar to pear drops) like
certain glues or nail polish removers, in which it is used.
- Ethyl acetate is the
ester from ethanol and acetic acid; it is manufactured on a large scale
for use as a solvent.
- Ethyl acetate is a
moderately polar solvent that has the advantages of being volatile,
relatively non-toxic, and non-hygroscopic.
- Ethyl acetate can
dissolve up to 3% water and has a solubility of 8% in water at room
temperature. At elevated temperature its solubility in water is higher.
It is unstable in the presence of strong aqueous bases and acids.
- Ethyl acetate is
synthesized via the Fischer esterification reaction from ethanol and
acetic acid, typically in the presence of an acid catalyst such as
concentrated sulfuric acid.
- It can also be prepared
through Tishchenko reaction, by combining two equivalents of
acetaldehyde in the presence of an alkoxide base as catalyst. This way
is a commercial method of producing ethyl acetate.
- Industrially, ethyl
acetate can be produced by the catalytic dehydrogenation of
ethanol.
- The main method to
manufacture ethyl acetate involves the esterification of ethanol with
acetic acid although some is produced by the catalytic condensation of
acetaldehyde with alkoxides.
- Solutia obtains ethyl
acetate as a coproduct in production of polyvinyl alcohol, which the
company uses captively in the manufacture of polyvinyl butyral.
- Wyoming bentonite,
exchanged with cations of high charge density, is an efficient and
selective catalyst for the production of ethyl acetate.
- Ethyl acetate is
primarily used as a solvent. It is commonly used to dissolve the
pigments for nail varnishes, and is responsible for the solvent-effect
of some nail varnish remover.
- Industrially it is used
to decaffeinate coffee beans and tea leaves. It is also used in paints
as an activator or hardener.
- Ethylacetate is rarely
selected as a reaction solvent because it is prone to hydrolysis.
- In the field of
entomology, ethyl acetate is an effective poison for use in insect
collecting and study.
Ethyl acetate exports were increasing at a rate
even higher than the domestic demand decline, 6.5 percent. The market,
however, was balanced by a decline in imported material, amounting to
-6.8 percent annually. |
