Ethyl acetate is widely used in the pharmaceutical field. It is often used as a solvent. In the preparation of pharmaceutical preparations, it can dissolve many insoluble pharmaceutical components, promote uniform dispersion of drugs, and improve the stability and quality of preparations. In the preparation of liquid preparations, such as oral solutions and injections, ethyl acetate can be fully dissolved by virtue of its excellent solubility, assisting the active ingredients of drugs, reaching an appropriate concentration, which is convenient for human absorption.

And in the process of drug synthesis, ethyl acetate also plays an important role. As a reaction medium, it provides a stable environment for various chemical reactions, makes the reaction proceed smoothly, and improves the yield and selectivity of the reaction. Some organic synthesis reactions have specific requirements for solvent polarity, boiling point, etc., and ethyl acetate can just meet such needs and ensure the smooth development of the reaction.

In addition, ethyl acetate is also used for drug extraction. When extracting effective medicinal ingredients from natural plants or other raw materials, it can take advantage of the difference in solubility of different ingredients to achieve separation of active ingredients and impurities, and improve the purity of the extract. In the pharmaceutical industry, it relies on these characteristics to provide strong support for drug research and development, production and other links, and help the preparation of high-quality drugs.
