Additional information

The solubility determination of test substancePhenethyl Phenylacetate(CAS No.102-20-5) in various organic solvents was done with acetone, acetonitrile, methanol, ethanol, toluene and Dimethylformamide (DMF). The solubility of the test substance in Acetone, acetonitrile, methanol, ethanol, toluene and DMF was found to be >1000mg/L at 29.5°C.

Other supporting data from another experimental report also determined the solubility of phenethyl phenylacetate in methanol at 28 degC was 4000 mg/L indicating that this substance is soluble in methanol and in petroleum ether at 28 degC was determined to be 4400 mg/L indicating that this substance is soluble in petroleum ether.
