The Uses of Pentadecanedioic acid
It is an important raw material and intermediate used in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and dyestuffs.
Definition
ChEBI: Pentadecanedioic acid is a long-chain fatty acid. It is used in the synthesis of cyclopentadecanone, cyclopentadecanolide, muscone, etc.
Preparation
Pentadecanedioic acid is produced from paraffin through fermentation followed by purification, rather than the traditional multi-step chemical process.
