MedKoo Cat#: 581371 | Name: tert-Butyl hydroperoxide solution
Featured

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

tert-Butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) is a widely used organic peroxide that functions primarily as a potent oxidizing agent in both chemical synthesis and biological studies. In organic chemistry, it is employed for selective oxidations, including epoxidation of alkenes, Baeyer–Villiger oxidations, and alcohol-to-ketone transformations, often in combination with metal catalysts. In biological contexts, TBHP serves as a reactive oxygen species (ROS) mimic, commonly used to induce oxidative stress in cell culture models to study apoptosis, ferroptosis, and antioxidant defense pathways. Additionally, TBHP is a substrate in peroxidase enzyme assays and is used industrially as a polymerization initiator and cross-linking agent. Its ability to generate free radicals underlies both its utility and its hazardous nature, necessitating careful handling. tert-Butyl hydroperoxide is supplied as 70% in Water
