Mono(2-ethyl-5-oxohexyl)phthalate

Description:

Mono(2-ethyl-5-oxohexyl)phthalate, with the CAS number 40321-98-0, is an ester derived from phthalic acid and a specific alcohol. This compound is characterized by its structure, which includes a phthalate moiety and a long-chain alkyl group, contributing to its hydrophobic properties. It is typically used as a plasticizer in various polymer applications, enhancing flexibility and durability. The presence of the 2-ethyl-5-oxohexyl group imparts unique physical and chemical properties, such as improved thermal stability and compatibility with different materials. Additionally, it may exhibit low volatility and resistance to extraction, making it suitable for use in products that require long-lasting performance. However, like many phthalates, it is important to consider environmental and health implications, as some phthalate esters have been scrutinized for potential endocrine-disrupting effects. Overall, Mono(2-ethyl-5-oxohexyl)phthalate serves as a functional additive in industrial applications, balancing performance with safety considerations.

Mono(2-ethyl-5-oxohexyl) phthalate (MEHP) is a metabolite of the plasticizer di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and is present in the urine of humans. MEHP has been shown to affect human metabolism by reducing insulin sensitivity and increasing body mass index. It also has an effect on human liver cells, as well as mitochondria, causing mitochondrial dysfunction and increased insulin resistance. MEHP appears to have a direct effect on the peroxisomes proliferation in animals, which may be due to its ability to activate PPARα. MEHP also increases fatty acid uptake into the liver cells, leading to increased fat accumulation in the liver. MEHP can also cause glomerular filtration rate reduction and chronic kidney disease.
