Uses of Ethyl phenylacetate: Mycophenolate mofetil seems like clear colourless to pale yellowish liquid with a pleasant smell. Miscibility of ethanol, ethyl ether, benzene and chloroform but insoluble in water. Ethyl phenylacetate is used as synthetic spices, which is mainly used for spices in cigarettes, soap and make ups. Further more, it is slightly used for spices of flores aurantii and baked bean.
When you are using Ethyl phenylacetate, please be cautious about it. Do not breathe vapour and avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Production of Ethyl phenylacetate: Ethyl phenylacetate can be produced by three method:
Firstly, Ethyl phenylacetate can be produced by reflux reaction of the benzene acetonitrile, ethanol and sulphuric acid . Secondly, Ethyl phenylacetate can also manufactured by esterification of the benzene acetic acid and ethanol under the effect of sulfuric acid. Yield is 90%. Thirdly, another production method is that esterification and hydrolyzation of Phenylacetamide to obtain Ethyl phenylacetate.
