11-Eicosenoyl chloride, with the CAS number 103213-61-2, is a chemical compound characterized by its long-chain fatty acid structure, specifically derived from eicosenoic acid. It features a carbon chain of 20 carbon atoms with a double bond located at the 11th position, making it an unsaturated fatty acid derivative. As an acyl chloride, it contains a reactive acyl chloride functional group (-COCl), which makes it highly reactive, particularly towards nucleophiles. This reactivity allows it to participate in various chemical reactions, including acylation and esterification. The compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is soluble in organic solvents. Its applications are primarily found in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of esters, amides, and other derivatives used in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials science. Due to its reactivity, proper handling and storage conditions are essential to prevent hydrolysis and degradation, as it can react with moisture in the air.
