Ethyl salicylate (CAS 118-61-6)
QUICK LINKS
Ethyl salicylate, or salicylic acid ethyl ester, is a delightful aromatic compound obtained from salicylic acid and ethyl alcohol. This colorless, thick liquid emits a sweet, floral fragrance, making it an essential ingredient in perfumes, food flavorings, and pharmaceuticals. Moreover, it serves as a preservative, antifungal, and insect repellent. In the realm of scientific research, ethyl salicylate finds extensive applications. Scientists explore its biochemical and physiological effects and investigate its potential for drug delivery systems. It also acts as a model compound for studying the characteristics of other esters. What sets ethyl salicylate apart is its ability to inhibit cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) enzymes, critical players in the production of prostaglandins and other inflammatory mediators. Additionally, it acts as an inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase, an enzyme responsible for the breakdown of acetylcholine. This multifaceted compound opens up exciting avenues in the world of science and industry.
