Isopropyl palmitate is the ester of isopropyl alcohol and palmitic acid. [2] It is an emollient , moisturizer , thickening agent , and anti-static agent . [ 3 ] The chemical formula is CH 3 (CH 2 ) 14 COOCH(CH 3 ) 2 .
An isomeric form of propyl is obtained by moving the point of attachment from a terminal carbon atom to the central carbon atom, named isopropyl or 1-methylethyl. To maintain four substituents on each carbon atom, one hydrogen atom has to be moved from the middle carbon atom to the carbon atom which served as attachment point in the n -propyl ...
Isopropylmalic acid (isopropylmalate) is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of leucine, [1] synthesized from oxoisovalerate by 2-isopropylmalate synthase and converted into isopropyl-3-oxosuccinate by 3-isopropylmalate dehydrogenase. Two isomers are important, the 2- and 3-isopropyl derivatives, and these are interconverted by isopropylmalate ...
Isopropylamine can be obtained by reaction of isopropyl alcohol with ammonia in presence of a catalyst: [3] (CH 3) 2 CHOH + NH 3 → (CH 3) 2 CHNH 2 + H 2 O. Isopropylamine is a building block for the preparation of many herbicides and pesticides including atrazine, bentazon, glyphosate, imazapyr, ametryne, desmetryn, prometryn, pramitol, dipropetryn, propazine, fenamiphos, and iprodione.
