1-Tetradecanol

Description:
1-Tetradecanol, with the CAS number 112-72-1, is a long-chain fatty alcohol characterized by its straight-chain structure consisting of 14 carbon atoms and a hydroxyl (-OH) functional group. It is a colorless, waxy solid at room temperature and has a mild, fatty odor. This compound is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, which is typical for long-chain alcohols. 1-Tetradecanol exhibits properties such as being a surfactant and emulsifier, making it useful in various applications, including cosmetics, personal care products, and as a lubricant. Its melting point is relatively high compared to shorter-chain alcohols, reflecting its hydrophobic nature. Additionally, it can undergo typical alcohol reactions, such as oxidation to form aldehydes or acids. Due to its fatty nature, it is also used in the production of esters for fragrances and flavorings. Overall, 1-tetradecanol is valued for its functional properties in industrial and consumer products.
