General Description
Glycerol formal (GF) is a light glycerol acetal that is composed of ~60% 5-hydroxy-1,3-dioxane and ~40% 4-hydroxymethyl-1,3-dioxolane. It can be prepared by reacting glycerol and formaldehyde in the presence of acid catalyst. The potential of GF as an injection solvent for use in toxicity testing has been reported.
