Pivalic acid
CAS 75-98-9
HS 2915900090
Product name: Pivalic acid CAS No.: 75-98-9 Molecular formula: C5H10O2 Applications: Core Industrial Applications (four major sectors) 1. Pharmaceutical industry (largest essential demand) 1. Pivaloyl chloride preparation: semi-synthetic penicillin (ampicillin), cefazolin and cefradine core acylation feedstock; glucocorticoid (prednisone, fluocortolone) intermediates improving drug lipophilicity and duration; 2. Drug protecting group: pivaloyl protection of amino/hydroxyl in peptide and heterocyclic synthesis — easy removal, few side reactions; 3. Dermatology and tuberculosis treatment drug synthesis building blocks. 2. Agrochemical intermediates • Herbicide: dedicated feedstock for clomazone; • Insecticide: pirimicarb (carbamate systemic insecticide) synthesis feedstock; pivalate pesticides resist rain wash-off with longer efficacy. 3. Polymers & materials 1. Peroxide polymerization initiators (TBPP, tert-butyl pivalate): efficient low-temperature initiators for styrene, acrylic and PVC polymerization — more stable than benzoyl peroxide; 2. PVC heat stabilizers, premium coating anti-yellowing aids, lubricant antioxidant additives; 3. Liquid adhesives and photosensitive material functional monomers. 4. Fragrance & fine chemicals Pivalate fruit fragrances (apple, be
