Applications · 3 items

UsesUsually used in the synthesis of fully isobutyramide terminated hyperbranched polyethylenimines,the separation and identification of shikonin and its ester derivatives in the root epidermis of Echium italicum.

UsesIsobutyryl chloride is used in the preparation of fully isobutyramide terminated hyperbranched polyethylenimines. It plays an important role in the separation and identification of shikonin and its ester derivatives in the root epidermis of Echium italicum L. It acts as an acylating agent for the ketimine derivatives of alfa-amino esters, nucleosides and pyrroles. Further, it is used in the preparation of organic peroxides. In addition to this, it is used as an intermediate for dyes, textile auxiliaries and peroxide compounds.

General DescriptionA colorless liquid. Flash point near 50°F. Irritates skin, eyes and mucous membranes. Toxic by ingestion, inhalation and skin absorption. Used to make other chemicals.
