Chemical Structure
Tributyl citrate
- CAS No.: 77-94-1
- Formula:C18H32O7
- Molecular Weight:360.45
IUPAC Name: tributyl 2-hydroxypropane-1,2,3-tricarboxylate
InChIKey: ZFOZVQLOBQUTQQ-UHFFFAOYSA-N
SMILES: O=C(CC(C(OCCCC)=O)(O)CC(OCCCC)=O)OCCCC
Biological Activity: Tributyl citrate is a low-toxicity and orally active citrate ester with no genotoxicity or skin sensitizing activity. Tributyl citrate also acts as a plasticizer, solvent, FDA-approved indirect food additive, and topical anesthetic, among other uses. Tributyl citrate induces a needle-prick insensitivity response that lasts for more than 2 hours, and a 5% suspension of it temporarily eliminates the corneal reflex in rabbits. Tributyl citrate causes no significant systemic toxicity in rats and cats at most tested doses, and only may cause growth retardation and gastrointestinal reactions such as diarrhea and nausea at high doses or with repeated oral administration[1][2].
