Common NamePROPYL FORMATE
ClassSmall Molecule
DescriptionPropyl formate, also known as fema 2943 or HCOOCH2CH2CH3, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as carboxylic acid esters. These are carboxylic acid derivatives in which the carbon atom from the carbonyl group is attached to an alkyl or an aryl moiety through an oxygen atom (forming an ester group). Propyl formate exists as a solid, possibly soluble (in water), and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa) molecule.
