Ethyl acetate and tea leaves are decaffeinated with this solvent. It is also used in paints as an activator or hardener. Ethyl acetate is present in confectionery, perfumes, and fruits. In perfumes, it evaporates quickly, leaving only the scent of the perfume on the skin. In the laboratory, mixtures containing ethyl acetate are commonly used in column chromatography and extractions. Ethyl acetate is rarely selected as a reaction solvent because it is prone to hydrolysis and transesterification. Ethyl acetate is fairly volatile at room temperature and has a boiling point of . Due to these properties, it can be removed from a
Di-deuterated linoleic acid ethyl ester Di-deuterated linoleic acid ethyl ester Di-deuterated ethyl linoleate (also known as RT001; Di-deuterated linoleic acid ethyl ester, 11,11-D2-Ethyl Linoleate, Ethyl 11,11-D2-Linoleate) is an experimental, orally-bioavailable synthetic deuterated polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA), an isotopologue of an essential omega-6 PUFA, linoleic acid. The deuterated compound, while identical to natural linoleic acid, is resistant to lipid peroxidation which makes studies of its cell-protective properties worthwhile. Investigations of 11,11-D2-Ethyl linoleate (RT001) are being conducted in several neurological indications, including Friedreich’s ataxia and Infantile Neuroaxonal Dystrophy. A double-blind comparator-controlled Phase I/II clinical trial sponsored by Retrotope and Friedreich’s Ataxia Research Alliance was conducted to determine
