描述
Ethyl pentadecanoate is a member of the class of compounds known as fatty acid esters. Fatty acid esters are carboxylic ester derivatives of a fatty acid. Ethyl pentadecanoate is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Ethyl pentadecanoate can be found in coriander, which makes ethyl pentadecanoate a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product.
