Phthalates are a group of synthetic chemicals used to soften plastics and make them more flexible. They are often found in a wide range of everyday products, including cosmetics, soaps, shampoos, plastics, adhesives, and packaging materials. Phthalates are known to be endocrine disruptors, which means they can interfere with the body's hormonal system. Long-term exposure to certain phthalates has been linked to reproductive problems, birth defects, and other health issues in humans and animals.
Phthalide is a type of naturally occurring compound that is a sub-class of lactones. Lactones are a type of organic chemical compound that contains a ring structure with a carbonyl group (CO) in an oxygen heterocycle. Phthalides are characterized by a six-membered ring with an oxygen and a side chain attached to it.
