A strategic C10 building block for polyene chains:

• Carotenoid Synthesis: Key intermediate for synthesizing symmetric C40 carotenoids (e.g., Beta-Carotene, Lycopene) via Wittig or Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reactions.

• Retinoid Chemistry: Used in the construction of Vitamin A derivatives and Retinal analogues.

• Conjugated Systems: Ideal precursor for extending conjugated polyene systems in organic electronic materials or dyes.
