China and the United States are the leading exporters of Diisopropyl azodicarboxylate (CAS 2446-83-5), collectively accounting for the majority of global shipments, while Germany, Japan, and South Korea represent the largest importers. Import volumes into the European Union and East Asia have remained relatively stable over the past three years, with modest quarterly fluctuations correlating with shifts in Diisopropyl azodicarboxylate prices and pharmaceutical R&D activity.
Diisopropyl azodicarboxylate (DIAD) is a pale yellow to amber liquid at room temperature, with moderate volatility and a mild, characteristic odor. It is an organic azo compound classified as a reactive coupling reagent and specialty chemical intermediate. DIAD is primarily employed in stoichiometric amounts as a dehydrating agent in Mitsunobu reactions, enabling inversion of stereochemistry and formation of esters, ethers, and other functionalized molecules. Its principal applications are in the synthesis of fine chemicals—particularly active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and complex intermediates for pharmaceuticals—and, to a lesser extent, in advanced agrochemical research and development.
It can be used as dye intermediates, pharmaceutical intermediates, organic synthesis reagents, and the foaming agent of the rubber plastics liquid. Isopropyl azodicarboxylate can be used for the liquid foaming agent of vinyl resin. It can be used to make light-colored vinyl foam. It has a uniform pore structure with different formulations and processing conditions giving foam of either closed pore or open pore. It can also be used as pharmaceutical intermediates, and organic synthesis reagents.
