Ethyl 2-hydroxybenzoate Usage And Synthesis
DescriptionEthyl 2-hydroxdybenzoate is also known as Ethyl salicylate, which a kind of ester formed through the condensation between salicylic acid and ethanol. It can be used as a perfumery, artificial essence flavoring agent and used in cosmetics. It can also be used as analgesics, anti-inflammatory and antipyretic agents.
Chemical Propertiesclear colourless to pale yellow liquid
Chemical PropertiesEthyl salicylate is the ester formed by the condensation of salicylic acid and ethanol. It is a clear liquid that is sparingly soluble in water, but soluble in alcohol and ether. It has a pleasant odor resembling winter green and is used in perfumery and artificial flavors.
Chemical PropertiesEthyl salicylate has a characteristic aromatic odor similar to wintergreen. It tends to darken on exposure to light and air.
OccurrenceReported found in raspberry, tomato, currants, rum, whiskey, red wine, plum brandy, Cape gooseberry, Feijoa fruit, papaya and scotch.
Usesmanufacture of artificial perfumes.
UsesEthyl salicylate is a non-steroidal analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antirrheumatic drug. Its complexation with β-cyclodextrin was studied using reversed-phase liquid chromatography.
UsesEthyl salicylate may be used as an analytical standard for the determination of the analyte in biological fluids and topical formulation by chromatography-based techniques.
PreparationBy esterification of salicylic acid with ethyl alcohol and concentrated H2SO4 at 100°C in the presence of aluminum sulfate; by heating to the boil an alkaline solution of salicylic acid and ethyl p-toluenesulfonate.
Production MethodsEthyl salicylate is found naturally in currants and strawberries . It is manufactured commercially by the esterification of salicylic acid with ethyl alcohol.
Taste threshold valuesTaste characteristics at 10 ppm: sweet, wintergreen, spicy and anisic.
General DescriptionEthyl salicylate was hydrolysed to salicylic acid by the use of an extractive electrospray ionisation (EESI) device.
