Product Name：2,2-Dimethyl-1,3-propanediol Molecular format：C5H12O2 CAS No：126-30-7 Product molecular structure： Chemical Properties:  The chemical formula for Neopentyl glycol (NPG) is C5H12O2, and it is a propane-1,3-diol carrying two methyl groups at position 2.Neopentyl glycol is soluble in water, benzene, chloroform, and very soluble in ethanol and diethyl ether. Neopentylglycol (NPG) is a unique polyalcohol offering superior performance advantages in many end-use applications due to its high chemical and thermal stability. It is a unique diol offering superior performance advantages in many end-use applications. These advantages are derived from its chemical structure. The location of the hydroxyl groups on primary carbon atoms allows rapid esterification. Additionally, the two methyl groups, instead of the usual two hydrogen atoms, on the alpha carbon atom are responsible for the high chemical and thermal stability of Neopentylglycol and its derivatives.   Application: NPG Glycol is used in the synthesis of tetraphenylporphyrins. Also used in the synthesis of Bryostatin 2, a protein kinase modulator. 2,2-Dimethyl-1,3-propanediol may be used in the synthesis of: 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediol cyclic phosphorochloridate 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediol cyclic phenylphosphonate [1′,3′-(2′,2′-dimethylpropylene)]-2-iodo-3-octyl-5-thienylboronate cyclic carbonate 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediol bis(cyclic-2,2-dimethyltrimethylene phosphite)
