| Production method and use | |||||
| Production method | It is produced by esterification of lauric acid with methanol. The mixture of lauric acid, anhydrous methanol and concentrated sulfuric acid was heated to reflux for 18h, and the reaction was poured into water to separate the ester layer. Wash with water, saturated sodium bicarbonate solution and water in turn. After drying, the distillate was collected at 261-263ºC, which was methyl dodecanoate with yield of 81%. | ||||
| Use | It is mainly used for the preparation of food flavor and daily chemical flavor. | ||||
