- China: USD 1,474/MT
- France: USD 2,062/MT
- Brazil: USD 1,631/MT
- South Africa: USD 2,385/MT
During the first quarter of 2025, the diisopropyl ether prices in the USA reached 1,987 USD/MT in March. In Q1 2025, diisopropyl ether (DIPE) prices in the USA rose steadily, influenced by limited production and adverse winter weather disrupting supply chains in major chemical-producing states. The availability of upstream isopropanol remained tight, further constraining DIPE synthesis. Strong demand from fuel blending and pharmaceuticals added to the upward pressure. Import volumes were inconsistent due to logistical constraints and port delays, amplifying market tightness.
During the first quarter of 2025, diisopropyl ether prices in China reached 1,474 USD/MT in March. In this period, Chinese DIPE prices remained volatile, shaped by fluctuating costs of feedstock isopropanol and changing regulatory conditions affecting solvent production. Operational shutdowns at select plants during the Lunar New Year holidays curtailed output. Although downstream demand from pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals was stable, limited export demand and cautious inventory restocking practices created pricing variability across different regions in the country.
During the first quarter of 2025, the diisopropyl ether prices in France reached 2,062 USD/MT in March. France experienced moderate DIPE price increases due to rising raw material costs and firm demand from the pharmaceutical and fine chemical sectors. Local production operated under tight margins amid higher energy and compliance costs, while cross-border trade within the EU remained fluid but offered limited relief from broader supply-side constraints. Inventory replenishment was strategic, aimed at avoiding exposure to further cost escalation.
During the first quarter of 2025, the diisopropyl ether prices in Brazil reached 1,631 USD/MT in March. DIPE prices in Brazil moved upward, driven by constrained domestic output and dependency on imports to meet industrial demand. Rising international freight rates and port congestion caused delays, limiting supply availability. Steady consumption from pharmaceuticals and industrial applications kept demand stable. Currency volatility also affected landed costs, while high feedstock prices added pressure across the value chain, keeping offers consistently elevated.
During the first quarter of 2025, the diisopropyl ether prices in South Africa reached 2,385 USD/MT in March. South Africa's DIPE market faced price gains during the quarter, driven by restricted supply and logistical inefficiencies at key ports. Import reliance remained high due to limited local production capacity. Demand from the pharmaceutical and chemical processing industries held firm, but erratic shipping schedules and longer lead times from Asian and European suppliers intensified supply tightness. Exchange rate fluctuations further impacted cost structures.

Product Description
DIPE is a colorless, volatile liquid with a distinct odor. It is a member of the ether family, characterized by an oxygen atom sandwiched between two hydrocarbon groups. In the case of diisopropyl ether, these hydrocarbon groups are isopropyl (CH3)2CH-.
Synthesized through the reaction of isopropanol with an acid catalyst, diisopropyl ether finds utility in various industrial and laboratory applications. Its primary function is as a solvent. Due to its relatively low boiling point (68.7°C) and good solvency for a wide range of organic compounds, it serves as an excellent medium for chemical reactions, extractions, and as a component in various formulations.
One of its notable applications is as a solvent in Grignard reactions, where it facilitates the formation of highly reactive organomagnesium compounds. Additionally, it finds use in organic synthesis as a solvent for reactions involving sodium and potassium, as well as in the production of various pharmaceuticals and perfumes.
