It is also used to make varnishes and plasticizers. Isobutyric acid has some important derivatives. It is actually used in industry to produce intermediates of isobutyronitrile, and then converted into isobutyramide hydrochloride, which is the raw material of the insecticide diazinon. Isobutyric acid is mainly used to synthesize isobutyric acid ester products. It is the raw material for producing esters used in perfumes and flavors, such as methyl isobutyrate, propyl isobutyrate, isoamyl ester, benzyl ester, etc. It can be used as a food flavor. It is a food flavor allowed by GB2760-1996.
