General description

2,2-Dimethylvaleric acid is a branched-chain-fatty acid. It is a structural analog of di-n-propylacetate (DPA).

Application

2,2-Dimethylvaleric acid may be employed as internal standard for the liquid chromatography-mass spectrometric determination of 2,2-dimethylbutyrate (DMB) in rat plasma.

Pharmaceuticals are emerging contaminants as their worldwide consumption increases. Fibrates such as gemfibrozil (GEM) are used in human medicine to reduce blood concentrations of cholesterol and triacylglycerol and also are some of the most frequently reported pharmaceuticals in waste waters

An increase in GABA-ergic activity has been implicated in the initiation of quasi-morphine abstinence behavior by di-n-propylacetate (DPA). Two structural analogues of DPA, namely, the branched-chain-fatty acid 2-methyl, 2-ethylcaproic acid and 2,2-dimethylvaleric acid have now been used to study this
