Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] As a crucial organic chemical raw material, 2,6-diisopropylnaphthalene holds a significant position in the chemical industry. Furthermore, its biological activity offers potential applications in environmentally friendly insecticides, plant growth regulators, and preservatives for stored vegetables, making it increasingly important in the pesticide field.
[0003] However, current research on 2,6-diisopropylnaphthalene faces numerous limitations. Studies of its behavior in plants are limited to the detection of the parent compound using chromatography or chromatography-mass spectrometry, with a significant lack of research on its metabolism and degradation products. This situation directly results in a superficial understanding of its metabolic processes and environmental behavior, hindering a deeper understanding of its transformation and impact mechanisms within ecosystems.
[0004] In the international development of new pesticides, radioactive isotope tracing technology is indispensable for new drug research. Regarding 2,6-diisopropylnaphthalene, its chemical transformation in complex environments and within organisms remains unclear from a chemical stability perspective. Carbon-14 labeling helps accurately track its structural changes. Regarding metabolic stability, due to a lack of research on metabolism and degradation products, it is impossible to accurately assess its persistence and transformation characteristics within organisms. Radioactive labeling can provide direct evidence. From a toxicological perspective, in-depth exploration of its metabolic pathways and mechanisms of action is key to assessing its impact on the ecological environment and biosafety. Carbon-14 labeling of 2,6-diisopropylnaphthalene is essential for conducting these studies.
