clear colourless liquid | [Uses]
Dibutyl oxalate has been suggested for use in perfumes as a solvent blender, but does not seem to offer advantages over odorless or low-odor solvents conventionally used. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Oxalic acid dibutyl ester is a dicarboxylic acid. | [General Description]
The rate of dibutyl oxalate degradation in ruminal contents from adapted and non-adapted animals was studied. | [Synthesis]
Dibutyl oxalate is produced from n-Butanol and Oxalic acid by direct esterification.
