sec-Butyl acetate, or s-butyl acetate, is a high-demand ester renowned for its role as a solvent in lacquers and enamels. It plays a crucial part in crafting acyclic polymers, vinyl resins, and nitrocellulose. This clear, flammable liquid is easily recognizable by its sweet, inviting aroma.
sec-Butyl acetate is complemented by three isomeric forms, all sharing the acetate ester group: n-butyl acetate, isobutyl acetate, and tert-butyl acetate.
