Hexanoyl-DL-carnitine chloride is a useful scaffold, versatile building block, and reaction component. It can be used as a precursor in the synthesis of complex compounds, such as hexanoyl-L-carnitine and hexanoyl-D-carnitine, acts as a potential absorption-enhancing agents when used in drugs that are poorly absorbed, particularly in the gastrointestinal track.
