2,6-Diisopropylnaphthalene
Based on 1 Customer Validation
2,6-Diisopropylnaphthalene is a substituted naphthalene compound, metabolite precursor and potato sprout inhibitor. 2,6-Diisopropylnaphthalene is metabolized in rats only via oxidation of its isopropyl chains, producing five major unconjugated urinary metabolites, glucuronide conjugates of these metabolites, while a small amount of the parent drug is excreted in urine. 2,6-Diisopropylnaphthalene inhibits sprouting of stored potato tubers; when used alone, it only provides a short-term sprout-inhibiting effect.

Biological Activity
2,6-Diisopropylnaphthalene (2,6-DIPN) used alone at 8.3 mg/kg merely exerts short-term sprout suppression on Russet Burbank, Snowden and Ranger Russet potatoes, while its combination with CIPC significantly enhances and prolongs the sprout-inhibiting effect, allows up to 50% reduction of CIPC dosage, and the mixture of two agents both at 16.6 mg/kg shows the best long-term efficacy[2].
