Global Solketal (CAS 100-79-8) Market Research Report 2021

Solketal is a protected form of glycerol with an isopropylidene acetal group joining two neighboring hydroxyl groups. Solketal contains a chiral center on the center carbon of the glycerol backbone, and so can be purchased as either the racemate or as one of the two enantiomers. Solketal has been used extensively in the synthesis of mono-, di- and triglycerides by ester bond formation. The free hydroxyl groups of solketal can be esterified with a carboxylic acid to form the protected monoglyceride, where the isopropylene group can then be removed using an acid catalyst in aqueous or alcoholic medium. The unprotected diol can then be esterified further to form either the di- or triglyceride.
Solketal is widely used as organic solvent, plasticizer and pharmaceutical intermediates. In the application segment, Solvent segment accounted for the most of market share (74.37% in 2018), in terms of volume, while Pharmaceutical Intermediates segment accounted for 7.89%. Briefly speaking, in the next few years, Solketal industry will still be a highly energetic industry. With the global improvement of environmental protection concept, Solketal market will witness a significant increase.
