Description

Diethyl fumarate (DEF) is a solvent that is used in the production of glycol esters and diethyl. It is also used during the synthesis of methyl ethyl trifluoracetate. DEF has been shown to be a good solvent for many organic solvents, but it has low volatility and high boiling point. Diethyl fumarate has been used as a diagnostic agent in skin cancer research and as an anti-inflammatory agent in bowel disease research. It may also be effective against radiation-induced erythrocyte injury and inflammatory bowel disease due to its antioxidant properties.
