Isobutyl Iodide Applications

Isobutyl iodide, or 513-38-2, is mainly used as a solvent but has various other applications. It is denser than water and incompatible with reducing and potent oxidizing agents and other compounds. Some of its key applications include:

Pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals: Isobutyl iodide is used to prepare some of these compounds.

Organic solvent: It is used as a solvent, dissolving diethyl ether, chloroform, acetone, alcohols and more. It also dissolves hydrophobic materials like waxes, resins and oils.

Analytical reagent: Isobutyl iodide can be used to prepare organic molecules when introducing isobutyl groups, serving as a key reagent in organic synthesis.
