1-(((4-Nitrophenoxy)carbonyl)oxy)ethyl isobutyrate(Cat No.:L034429)is a multifunctional ester featuring a 4-nitrophenyl carbonate moiety linked to an ethyl isobutyrate backbone. The presence of the 4-nitrophenyl group enhances the molecule’s reactivity in nucleophilic substitution and transesterification reactions, making it a useful activated carbonate intermediate in organic synthesis. It is often employed in the preparation of prodrugs, functional polymers, and bioactive compounds, where controlled release or selective derivatization is desired. The isobutyrate segment contributes to lipophilicity and modulates solubility, supporting its use in pharmaceutical and materials science applications.
