III. Application Areas
1. Pharmaceutical Excipients & Drug Synthesis
Pharmaceutical Excipients:
Serves as an eco-friendly plasticizer replacing phthalates (used in sustained-release tablet coatings, capsule films).
Used to prepare **biodegradable drug carriers(e.g., nanoparticles, hydrogels).
Drug Intermediate:
Key precursor for synthesizing isosorbide dinitrate(anti-angina drug).
Building block for chiral antiviral drugs (e.g., hepatitis C protease inhibitors).
2. Polymer Material Monomer
Eco-friendly Plastics:
Polymerizes with diacids to synthesize 100% bio-based polyesters (e.g., PEF, as PET plastic substitute).
Functional Materials:
Prepares heat-resistant epoxy resin curing agents (for electronic packaging).
Synthesizes waterborne polyurethanes(eco-friendly coatings/adhesives).
3. Fine Chemicals
Chiral Synthon:Selective derivatization of hydroxyl groups (esterification, etherification).
