3,7,11-Trimethyldodecanoic acid

Description:
3,7,11-Trimethyldodecanoic acid, with the CAS number 1190-55-2, is a branched-chain fatty acid characterized by its long carbon chain and multiple methyl groups. This compound features a dodecanoic acid backbone, which consists of 12 carbon atoms, with three methyl groups located at the 3rd, 7th, and 11th positions. The presence of these methyl groups contributes to its unique structural properties, influencing its physical and chemical behavior. Typically, it is a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid at room temperature, exhibiting low solubility in water but higher solubility in organic solvents. The branched structure can affect its melting and boiling points, making it distinct from linear fatty acids. 3,7,11-Trimethyldodecanoic acid is of interest in various applications, including as a surfactant, lubricant, or in the synthesis of other chemical compounds. Its unique structure may also impart specific biological activities, making it a subject of research in fields such as biochemistry and materials science.
