Cyclododecanol

Cyclododecanol is a non-polar solvent that has been used in pharmaceutical preparations. Cyclododecanol is produced by the reaction of cyclododecanone with dodecanedioic acid, fatty acids, and hydrogen fluoride. The hydroxyl group of cyclododecanol reacts with piperazine to form a solid catalyst. This reaction solution can then be separated into two layers using a section: the lower layer contains cyclohexane and the upper layer contains cyclododecanol. Cyclododecanol has a hydrophobic effect due to its lack of polar functional groups.
