7,11-Heptacosadiene, commonly referred to as (Z,Z)-7,11-heptacosadiene, is a long-chain unsaturated hydrocarbon belonging to the class of alkenes. It features two double bonds located at the 7th and 11th carbon positions, both in the cis (Z) configuration, which influences its physical properties and reactivity. This compound is part of the family of polyunsaturated fatty acids and is typically found in various natural sources, including certain plant oils and animal fats. Its molecular structure contributes to its relatively low melting point compared to saturated hydrocarbons of similar chain length, making it a liquid at room temperature. The presence of double bonds allows for potential reactivity, including addition reactions with electrophiles. Additionally, (Z,Z)-7,11-heptacosadiene may exhibit biological activity, potentially serving roles in signaling or as precursors to more complex biomolecules. Due to its long carbon chain, it may also have applications in the synthesis of surfactants or as a lubricant in various industrial processes.
