A liquid-phase high-pressure IR study of the model lubricant 2-ethylhexyl benzoate (EHB) between 0 and 40 kbar (at ambient temperature) is reported. Changes in band position and bandwidth were interpreted in terms of in-chain and lateral chain interactions with a net increase in the importance of repulsive potentials and an increase in the distribution of mol. environments. Although changes in the proportion of gauche conformers in the hydrocarbon chain would be expected at higher densities, evidence of such changes were difficult to find in the IR spectrum. This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as 2-Ethylhexyl benzoate (cas: 5444-75-7Application of 5444-75-7).
2-Ethylhexyl benzoate (cas: 5444-75-7) belongs to esters. Esters typically have a pleasant smell; those of low molecular weight are commonly used as fragrances and are found in essential oils and pheromones. Cyclic esters are called lactones, regardless of whether they are derived from an organic or inorganic acid. One example of an organic lactone is γ-valerolactone.Application of 5444-75-7
