Butylparaben-d₄  (Synonyms: Butyl parahydroxybenzoate-d₄; Butyl paraben-d₄; Butyl 4-hydroxybenzoate-d₄)

Butylparaben-d₄ is the deuterium labeled Butylparaben. Butylparaben is an organic compound, has proven to be a highly successful antimicrobial preservative in cosmetics, also used in medication suspensions, and as a flavoring additive in food.

Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs^[1].
