Dibutyl squarate (also known as squaric acid dibutyl ester or SADBE) is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C₁₂H₁₈O₄. It is the dibutyl derivative of squaric acid.

Medically, it is used for the treatment of warts^[1] and for treating alopecia areata or alopecia totalis (autoimmune hair loss) through topical immunotherapy involving the production of an allergic rash.^[2]^[3] Dibutyl squarate is currently undergoing trials for use in treating herpes labialis (cold sores).^[4]
