propionic acid
pro·pi·on·ic acid P0601200 (prō′pē-ŏn′ĭk)n. An oily liquid acid, C3H6O2, found naturally in sweat, in milk products, and as a product of bacterial fermentation. Prepared synthetically from ethyl alcohol and carbon monoxide, it is used chiefly in the form of its propionates as a mold inhibitor in bread and as an ingredient in perfume. Also called propanoic acid.

Propionic Acid
propionic acid[¦prō·pē¦än·ik ′as·əd] (organic chemistry) CH3CH2COOH Water- and alcohol-soluble, clear, colorless liquid with pungent aroma; boils at 140.7°C; used to manufacture various propionates, in nickel-electroplating solutions, for perfume esters and artificial flavors, for pharmaceuticals, and as a cellulosics solvent. Also known as methylacetic acid; propanoic acid. Propionic Acid CH3CH2COOH, a monocarboxylic acid of the aliphatic series. It is a colorless liquid with a pungent odor and has a melting point of — 20.8°C, a boiling point of 140.8°C, and a density of 0.993 g/cm3 (20°C). It is soluble in water, alcohol, and ether. Propionic acid is formed during the fermentation of carbohydrates by propionic acid bacteria and certain other bacteria. In industry it is obtained chiefly through the oxidation of paraffin hydrocarbons as a by-product in the preparation of acetic acid. Propionic acid and its salts (Na, K, and others) are used as fungicides. Propionic anhydride is used in the manufacture of cellulose esters, and geranyl propionate and various other esters are used in perfume bases. propionic acid
