Mono(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate

Description:

Mono(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP) is an organic compound that belongs to the class of phthalates, which are esters of phthalic acid. It is primarily used as a plasticizer to enhance the flexibility and durability of plastics, particularly polyvinyl chloride (PVC). MEHP is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor and is known for its low volatility and high boiling point. The substance is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water, which contributes to its persistence in the environment. MEHP is of interest due to its potential endocrine-disrupting properties, as it can mimic hormones and may affect reproductive health. Toxicological studies have indicated that exposure to MEHP can lead to various health concerns, prompting regulatory scrutiny. As a result, its use is being monitored and restricted in several jurisdictions. Overall, MEHP's chemical properties and biological effects make it a significant compound in discussions surrounding environmental health and safety.

Rac mono(ethylhexyl) phthalate

CAS: 4376-20-9

Rac-mono(ethylhexyl) phthalate is a phthalate that is used as an ester plasticizer in polyvinyl chloride. This product has been shown to cause oxidative injury, toxicity, and cell death in vitro. The effects of this product on the mouse testis have also been studied. Rac-mono(ethylhexyl) phthalate has been shown to decrease energy metabolism and polymerase chain activity, which may lead to tumorigenesis. This product also has a toxic effect on mouse cells at low doses. Rac-mono(ethylhexyl) phthalate binds to the response element, which is responsible for regulating gene expression.
