  • Applications

    Ononitol, (+)- (CAS number: 6090-97-7) is primarily used as a chemical intermediate and a chiral building block in the synthesis of inositol-derived compounds and other fine chemicals. In industrial manufacturing, it serves as a starting material for the preparation of specialty chemicals, crosslinking agents, and polyol-based formulations. In biochemical and pharmaceutical contexts, it is used as a substrate or reference compound in studies of inositol metabolism and related pathways. It is also explored as a polyol building block for polymers and coatings, and may be evaluated for cosmetic/personal care applications as a humectant or stabilizer in formulated products subject to local regulations.
