:Erucic acid
Description:
Erucic acid is a long-chain monounsaturated fatty acid with the chemical formula C22H42O2. It is characterized by a carbon chain of 22 carbon atoms and a single double bond located at the 13th carbon from the methyl end, making it an omega-9 fatty acid. This colorless to pale yellow liquid is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. Erucic acid is primarily found in the oil of certain plants, notably in rapeseed oil, and is used in various industrial applications, including the production of lubricants, surfactants, and plasticizers. While it has some nutritional value, high levels of erucic acid consumption have been associated with health concerns, particularly in relation to heart health, leading to the development of low-erucic acid rapeseed varieties for food use. Its melting point is relatively low, and it has a distinct fatty odor. Overall, erucic acid is significant both in biochemistry and industrial chemistry, with ongoing research into its properties and applications.

CAS:<p>Erucic acid is a monounsaturated omega-9 fatty acid predominantly found in the seeds of specific plants, such as rapeseed and mustard. It is sourced from the oil extracted from these seeds, which are processed to yield this chemical compound. The mode of action of erucic acid is primarily related to its physicochemical properties, including its long carbon chain and unsaturation, which impact lipid metabolism and biological interactions.</p>Formula:C22H42O2Purity:Min. 95%Color and Shape:White To Light (Or Pale) Yellow Solid Or Liquid (May Vary)Molecular weight:338.57 g/mol
