| | 2-METHYLVALERIC ACID Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | 2-Methylvaleric acid has a powerful, pungent, acrid odor. Below
10 ppm the flavor is agreeable, sour, and oily. At higher concentrations,
the flavor is too acidic. May be prepared by catalytic
oxidation of 2-methyl pentanealdehyde; from 2-chloropentane
with sodium and C02 under pressure; by decarboxylation of
methyl propyl malonic acid; two optically active iosmers are
known. | | Chemical Properties | 2-Methylvaleric acid has a powerful, pungent, acrid odor. At concentrations below 10 ppm, it has an agreeable, sour,
oily flavor. At higher concentrations the flavor becomes disagreeable because it is too acidic. | | Chemical Properties | clear colorless liquid | | Occurrence | Reported found in coffee, wine, cheese, papaya, baked potato, pepper, lamb, rum, tea, mango and cherimoya | | Uses | (R,S)-2-methylvaleric acid is an intermediate in the synthesis of branched-chain. 2-Methylpentanoic acid (2-Methylvaleric acid) was used as an internal standard for gas chromatographic analysis of microbial end products. | | Uses | 2-Methylvaleric acid is used to produce plasticizers, vinyl
stabilizers, metallic salts, and alkyd resins. | | Uses | Plasticizers, vinyl stabilizers, metallic salts,alkyd resins. | | Preparation | By catalytic oxidation of 2-methyl pentanealdehyde; from 2-chloropentane with sodium and CO2 under pressure; by
decarboxylation of methyl propyl malonic acid; two optically active isomers are known | | Definition | ChEBI: 2-methylvaleric acid is a methyl-branched fatty acid that is pentanoic acid which carries a methyl group at position 2. It has a role as a flavouring agent, a plant metabolite and a fragrance. It is a branched-chain saturated fatty acid, a methyl-branched fatty acid, a monocarboxylic acid and a short-chain fatty acid. It is a conjugate acid of a 2-methylvalerate. | | General Description | 2-Methylpentanoic acid is a volatile fatty acid found in tobacco and milk. | | Flammability and Explosibility | Flammable |
