Acetic Anhydride is a colorless, volatile liquid that reacts readily with alcohols and amines to form esters and amides, making it essential in the synthesis of cellulose acetate, a major component in photographic films, coatings, and textiles.
In pharmaceuticals, Acetic Anhydride is used in the manufacture of aspirin, acetaminophen, and other acetylated compounds. It also serves roles in dye production, fragrances, agrochemicals, and as a reagent in organic synthesis.
