Description

Chimyl Alcohol CAS NO 53584-29-5 is a high-purity, long-chain fatty alcohol derivative, specifically a glyceryl ether lipid. This compound serves as a crucial intermediate and building block in advanced organic synthesis and pharmaceutical research. It is essential for manufacturers and R&D teams in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and specialty chemical industries seeking to develop novel lipid-based formulations, prodrugs, and bioactive molecules.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key starting material for the synthesis of phospholipid analogs, prodrugs, and other bioactive lipid conjugates.
• Liposome & Drug Delivery Systems: Used in the formulation of liposomes and other nanocarriers to enhance drug solubility, stability, and targeted delivery.
• Cosmetic & Personal Care Ingredients: Serves as an emollient and conditioning agent in high-end skincare and haircare products for its skin-compatible properties.
• Biochemical Research: Vital reagent in lipidomics research, membrane studies, and as a standard for analytical purposes.
• Specialty Surfactants: Acts as a precursor for the production of non-ionic surfactants with specific hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) values.
