Application

Suberic acid can be used to synthesize:
  • Perfluorinated analogs of suberoyl anilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) as potent histone deacetylase inhibitors.
  • Hemiester analogs of pregnenolone sulfate (PES).
  • Cellulose acetate suberate, a cellulose ω-carboxyalkanoate.
  • It can also act as a cross-linker for poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA). The cross-linked molecule shows enhanced tensile strength when compared to neat PVA.
