China and India are the leading exporters of 2,3-Dihydroxybutanedioic acid (CAS 526-83-0), collectively accounting for the majority of global shipments, while the United States, Germany, and South Korea represent the largest importers. Import volumes into the EU and North America have remained relatively stable since 2022, with modest quarterly fluctuations in 2,3-Dihydroxybutanedioic acid prices reflecting consistent demand from pharmaceutical and food additive sectors.
2,3-Dihydroxybutanedioic acid (CAS 526-83-0) is a white to off-white crystalline solid at room temperature, odorless, with a high melting point (~165–170 °C dec.) and low volatility. It is an aliphatic, chiral organic acid—specifically the meso isomer of tartaric acid—and functions as a specialty organic chemical intermediate. Industrially, it serves primarily as a building block in the synthesis of chiral catalysts, pharmaceutical intermediates, and metal-chelating agents. Its applications are concentrated in fine chemical manufacturing, particularly for active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and asymmetric synthesis reagents.
Pharmaceutic aid (buffering agent).
