UV-A radiation is absorbed by diethylaminohydroxybenzoylhexylbenzoate (DHHB), which peaks at 354 nm. Diethylaminohydroxybenzoyl hexyl benzoate's molar absorption coefficient in ethanol at 25°C was determined to be 39 000 mol/dm3/cm at 354 nm. The wavelength of excitation determines the emission spectra of diethylaminohydroxybenzoylhexyl benzoate in ethanol [1].
Diethylamino hydroxybenzoyl hexyl benzoate exhibits strong absorption in the UV-A region (320–400 nm) with a maximum absorption wavelength (λmax) ranging from 354 to 358 nm in different solvents (methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, and octanol). [1] The molar extinction coefficient (ε) of the compound at λmax is approximately 42,000 M⁻¹cm⁻¹, indicating high UV-A absorption capacity. [1] Fluorescence measurements show that the compound has weak fluorescence emission, with a quantum yield (Φf) less than 0.01 in all tested solvents, suggesting efficient non-radiative deactivation of excited states. [1] Photostability assays demonstrate that the compound retains over 95% of its initial absorption intensity after 2 hours of UV-A irradiation (365 nm, 10 mW cm⁻²) in both solution and thin film forms, indicating good photostability. [1] The compound shows high solubility (≥100 mg mL⁻¹) in common organic solvents used in cosmetic formulations, including ethanol, isopropanol, and octanol. [1] |

Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Based on a rat study evaluating skin or transdermal absorption, only a small amount of diethylaminohydroxybenzoylhexylbenzoate is absorbed transdermally; the majority of the compound remains in the upper stratum corneum. In rat and porcine skin, the transdermal absorption rate was 0.10 ± 0.12 μg/cm² or 0.04 ± 0.05%. No pharmacokinetic data. No pharmacokinetic data. No pharmacokinetic data. Metabolism/Metabolites In in vitro steady-state and transient photolysis experiments, diethylaminohydroxybenzoylhexylbenzoate can be oxidized by H₂O₂/UV to generate degradation products. Like other UV filters, diethylaminohydroxybenzoylhexylbenzoate may undergo photodegradation upon absorption of UV radiation, resulting in a transition from the ground state to a singlet or triplet excited state.

| Additional Infomation |
Diethylaminohydroxybenzoylhexyl benzoate belongs to the benzophenone class of compounds. It is a UV filter with a high absorption rate for the UVA band. It minimizes excessive exposure of human skin to UV radiation, thus preventing acute or chronic photodamage. Diethylaminohydroxybenzoylhexyl benzoate is an oil-soluble UV filter that can be added to the oil phase of emulsions. It was approved for marketing in Europe in 2005 and is currently sold in the United States, South America, Mexico, Japan, and Taiwan. Its chemical structure is similar to classic benzophenone drugs and it has good photostability. In sunscreen products, its concentration can reach up to 10%, and it can be used alone or in combination with other UV absorbers. See also: …See more…
Drug Indications Suitable for use as a sunscreen agent. Mechanism of Action Diethylaminohydroxybenzoylhexylbenzoate absorbs ultraviolet radiation in the UVA band with a peak wavelength of 354 nm. Pharmacodynamics Diethylaminohydroxybenzoylhexylbenzoate is an organic ultraviolet filter that reduces the exposure of human skin to ultraviolet radiation. In vitro experiments have shown that topical application of diethylaminohydroxybenzoylhexylbenzoate can exert an anti-inflammatory effect on the inflammation-induced ear of mice by inhibiting edema formation. Diethylaminohydroxybenzoylhexylbenzoate (trade name: Uvinul A Plus) is a UVA absorber widely used in cosmetics and personal care products. [1] Its main function is to absorb UVA radiation, thereby protecting the skin from ultraviolet damage such as photoaging and DNA damage. [1] This study aims to characterize its photophysical properties (absorption, fluorescence, photostability, solubility) to support its application in sunscreen formulations, as these properties are crucial to the efficacy and stability of sunscreen products.
