Dodecanedioic acid (DDDA) is a pure C12 dibasic acid that is mainly used in antiseptics, painting materials, top-grade coatings, corrosion inhibitors, surfactants and engineering plastics.
Dodecanedioic acid is available in a white, flaky form and has a long shelf life of approximately 3 years, depending on the storage methods.

There are two different ways to make Dodecanedioic acid: synthetic production and biotech production. 
Traditionally, Dodecanedioic acid is produced from butadiene using a chemical process. 
First, the butadiene is converted into cyclododecatriene through a cyclotrimerization process. 
The cyclododecatriene is then converted into dodecanedioic acid.

A newer approach is biotech production. 
Using biotechnology, Dodecanedioic acid is created from paraffin wax. 
This has made Dodecanedioic acid a cost-effective compound that is transforming the nylon market and showing up in products such as toothbrushes, cosmetics, adhesives, coatings, paints, automotive lubricants and corrosion inhibitors.

Preparation    
Dodecanedioic acid is prepared from cyc1ododecene (obtained from butadiene) by methods which are entirely analogous to those used to prepare adipic acid from benzene. 
The cyclododecene is reduced to cyclododecane, which is oxidized firstly to a mixture of cyc1ododecanol and cyclododecanone and then to dodecanedioic acid. 
Dodecanedioic acid is a colourless crystalline solid, m.p. 129°C.

Dodecanedioic acid is industrially possible to trimerize butadiene to give cyclododecatriene, which is then hydrogenated to cyclododecane, then, dodecanone is oxidized by nitric acid to give dodecanedioic acid. 
Dodecanedioic acid is also possible to react with hydrogen peroxide in methanol from cyclohexane to form alkoxy cyclohexyl peroxide, and then ring-opening and dimerization to form dodecanedioic acid methyl ester. 
After saponification, twelve double acid can be obtained. 
In laboratory preparation, Dodecanedioic acid was used as raw material to get dodecanedioic acid by nitric acid oxidation.
