Ethyl 4-Dimethylaminobenzoate(CAT: R028856) is an ester derivative of 4-dimethylaminobenzoic acid, commonly used as a photoinitiator in polymer chemistry and as a reagent in organic synthesis. The compound’s structure, with an ethyl ester group and a dimethylamino group on the benzene ring, enables it to absorb light and initiate free-radical polymerization, especially in UV-curable coatings, inks, and adhesives. In synthetic applications, it serves as an intermediate in the preparation of other organic compounds, including pharmaceutical and cosmetic agents. Ethyl 4-Dimethylaminobenzoate is valued for its role in facilitating cross-linking reactions and improving the efficiency of polymerization processes in light-sensitive applications.
