'''''tert''-Butyl acetate''', ''t''-butyl acetate or '''TBAc''' is a colorless flammable liquid with a [[camphor]]- or [[blueberry]]-like smell. It is used as a [[solvent]] in the production of lacquers, enamels, inks, adhesives, thinners and industrial cleaners. It has recently gained EPA [[volatile organic compound]] (VOC) exempt status.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.paint.org/voc-exempt/|title=Update: U.S. EPA Exempt Volatile Organic Compounds|date=2018-01-30|website=American Coatings Association|language=en-US|access-date=2019-03-20}}</ref>

It is manufactured from [[acetic acid]] and [[isobutylene]].<ref name=Merck/> An attempt at [[Fischer esterification]] would lead to [[Elimination reaction|elimination]] of [[tert-butyl alcohol]] to [[isobutylene]].

Butyl acetate has four isomers (or five, including [[stereoisomer]]s): ''tert''-butyl acetate, [[n-butyl acetate|''n''-butyl acetate]], [[isobutyl acetate]], and [[sec-butyl acetate|''sec''-butyl acetate]] (two [[enantiomer]]s).
