2-Dodecyl-1,2-benzisothiazol-3(2H)-one

Description:

2-Dodecyl-1,2-benzisothiazol-3(2H)-one, commonly referred to as DBIT, is an organic compound characterized by its benzisothiazolone structure, which contributes to its antimicrobial properties. It is primarily used as a biocide and preservative in various applications, including cosmetics, paints, and industrial products, due to its effectiveness against bacteria, fungi, and algae. The presence of a long dodecyl chain enhances its lipophilicity, allowing it to integrate well into lipid membranes, which is crucial for its antimicrobial action. DBIT is typically stable under normal conditions but may degrade under extreme pH or temperature. Its solubility in organic solvents and limited water solubility make it suitable for formulations requiring oil-based components. Safety data indicate that while it is effective as a preservative, it should be handled with care due to potential skin and eye irritation. Regulatory assessments are essential to ensure safe usage levels in consumer products. Overall, DBIT is valued for its broad-spectrum efficacy and versatility in various industrial applications.
