General description

2,4-Diisopropylphenol, commonly known as 2,4-propofol, is an isomeric form of propofol. EC50 Microtox (5min, 25°C) assay value of 2,4-diisopropylphenol is 2x10-4mM. It is formed as one of the reaction products from the reaction between boron fluoride with isopropyl phenyl ether.

Application

2,4-Diisopropylphenol may be used in the preparation of N,N-bis(3,5-diisopropyl-2-hydroxybenyl)-N′,N′-dimethyl-1,2-diaminoethane.
