  • Applications

    The compound (2,2-Dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)methyl 5-hydroxydecanoate (CAS 172201-58-0) is primarily used as an intermediate and a masked diol in lipid- and polymer-related chemistries; it serves as a protecting-group-bearing building block for selective esterification and subsequent deprotection, enabling the synthesis of lipid-like esters and specialty polymers; it may be evaluated as a precursor for cosmetic and personal-care formulations as a lipid-based structural motif after deprotection; it can function as a plasticizer-like additive or co-monomer in coatings, polymers, and polyurethane systems; and it is used in research and development for protecting-group strategies and formulation development.
