Diisobutyl adipate Usage And Synthesis

Uses

Diisobutyl Adipate can be used in?the yeast two-hybrid assay to identify?ligand-dependent interaction between nuclear hormone receptors and coactivators. It can also be employed in microwave-assisted extraction to determine adipate plasticizers in poly(vinyl chloride). Furthermore,?Diisobutyl Adipate is a useful compound for developing antimicrobial agents as antiseptics.

Uses

Diisobutyl adipate may be used as an analytical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in poly(vinyl chloride) plastics, human serum and food samples by gas chromatography (GC) based analytical techniques.

Definition

ChEBI: Diisobutyl adipate is a fatty acid ester.

General Description

Diisobutyl adipate is a bis(2-methylpropyl) ester of adipic acid that is used as a plasticizer and a fatty acid in synthetic oils.

Flammability and Explosibility

Not classified

Safety Profile

Moderately toxic by intraperitoneal route. Mddly toxic by ingestion. Experimental teratogenic effects. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and fumes.
