7786-58-5 Usage
Description
Octyl isovalerate has a strong odor reminiscent of fatty aldehyde
with an apple-pineapple undertone. May be prepared by esterification
of n-octanol with isovaleric acid.
Chemical Properties
n-Octyl isovalerate has a strong odor reminiscent of fatty aldehyde with an apple–pineapple undertone.
Occurrence
Reported found among the volatile constituents of the aroma of fresh Florida orange juice and babaco fruit
(Carica pentagona Heilborn).
Preparation
By esterification of n-octanol with isovaleric acid.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 7786-58-5 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 7,7,8 and 6 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 5 and 8 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 7786-58:
(6*7)+(5*7)+(4*8)+(3*6)+(2*5)+(1*8)=145
145 % 10 = 5
So 7786-58-5 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Structure-function correlation in lipase catalysed esterification reactions of short and medium carbon chain length alcohols and acids
Divakar, Soundar
, p. 1919 - 1922 (2007/10/03)
An attempt has been made to correlate the carbon chain lengths of acids and alcohols to the extent of esterification in the Rhizomucor miehei lipase catalyzed esterification reactions involving acids of carbon chain length C2-C5 and alcohols of carbon chain length C1-C8.
