Benzylbutylphthalate

Benzylbutylphthalate (BBzP), also called n-butyl benzyl phthalate (BBP) or benzyl butyl phthalate, is a phthalate, an ester of phthalic acid, benzyl alcohol and n-butanol. Its chemical formula is C₁₉H₂₀O₄, its SMILES representation is CCCCOC(=O)c1ccccc1C(=O)OCc2ccccc2, and its CAS Registry Number is 85-68-7. It comes under trade names eg. Palatinol BB, Unimoll BB, Palatinol BB, or Sicol 160. It is mostly used as a plasticizer for PVC.
