Overview

1,3-Dihydroxyacetone dimer (DHAD) is formed by the condensation reaction of two DHA molecules. It appears as white crystalline powder with a sweet taste, and is easily soluble in water, ethanol, acetone and other organic solvents. DHAD remains relatively stable at pH 6.0, yet it can be converted into monomeric DHA upon dissolution or heating.
Applications:
Model compound: DHAD is used as a model compound to study the structure and functions of carbohydrates.
Precursor: DHAD can serve as a precursor for the synthesis of various compounds, such as nitrate esters and phosphorus-doped carbon quantum dots.
Biomaterials: DHAD can be applied as biomaterials or organic compounds in life science research.
Other applications: It also has potential application prospects in cosmetics, food, pharmaceutical and other fields.
