Diethyl dibutylmalonate Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

colourless liquid

Application

Diethyl dibutylmalonate can be used to prepare Guerbet acid. Guerbet acid is a fatty acid with a long branched alkane at the α position of the carboxylic acid. Compared with straight-chain fatty acids with the same carbon number, it has the characteristics of being colorless and odorless, having almost no adverse effects on the human body, having a low freezing point, and having low irritation. It is widely used in industrial lubricants, metalworking fluids, cosmetics, surfactants and additives.
