Description of Isovaleric Acid
Isovaleric Acid CAS 503-74-2: Properties and Applications
Isovaleric Acid, also known as 3-Methylbutanoic Acid, 3-Methylbutyric Acid, or Isopentanoic Acid, is a branched-chain saturated carboxylic acid with the chemical formula C5H10O2 and a molecular weight of 102.13 g/mol. CAS No. 503-74-2 and EC No. 207-975-3 are commonly used to identify the substance in commercial and regulatory documentation. PubChem describes it as a colorless liquid with a strong characteristic odor and slight solubility in water. Its reported boiling point is approximately 176.5°C at 760 mmHg.
From a procurement perspective, the value of Isovaleric Acid 503-74-2 comes from its combination of a relatively simple molecular structure and several established industrial uses. It is used as a flavor ingredient, fragrance ingredient, and chemical intermediate, including in the preparation of esters that can be used in solvent, softener, perfume and related chemical applications. Public chemical references also identify it within the flavoring agent and fragrance ingredient categories.
The material can therefore be relevant to buyers working in flavor and fragrance manufacturing, food ingredient supply chains, specialty chemicals, organic synthesis, and other industrial applications requiring a C5 branched-chain carboxylic acid. For buyers searching for an Isovaleric Acid supplier, it is useful to distinguish the required grade and end use before purchasing because specification and regulatory documentation can vary between applications.
