Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
Ethyl 6-hydroxyhexanoate is suitable for use in the synthesis of series of model phenol carbonate ester prodrugs having fatty acid-like structures. It may be used in the preparation of alkyl triflates. It may be used in the synthesis of ethyl 6-(trifluoromethylsulfonyloxy)hexanoate. | [Uses]
Ethyl 6-Hydroxyhexanoate is used as a reagent in the synthesis of cross-reactive carbohydrate determinants (CCDs) as tools for in vitro allergy diagnosis. Ethyl 6-Hydroxyhexanoate is also used in the preparation of N-5-Carboxypentyl-1-deoxymannojirimycin (C181150); a ligand used for the preparation of an affinity resin specific for Man9 mannosidase. | [Synthesis Reference(s)]
