General description: | Isopentyl acetate, also known as isoamyl acetate, is a widely used solvent. It is an ester produced by combining acetic acid with isopentanol. It is slightly soluble in water but exhibits high solubility in various organic solvents. Isopentyl acetate finds application as a solvent in research labs, can dissolve certain non-polar and polar compounds, and is used in the extraction and preparation of samples for analysis. Furthermore, it serves as a green solvent for the extraction of target compounds from complex matrices. |
