Octanoic acid

Description:

Octanoic acid, also known as caprylic acid, is a saturated fatty acid with the molecular formula C8H16O2. It is characterized by its eight-carbon chain, which contributes to its hydrophobic nature. Octanoic acid is a colorless, oily liquid at room temperature and has a distinctive, rancid odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but only slightly soluble in water due to its hydrophobic properties. This fatty acid is commonly found in coconut oil and palm kernel oil and is used in various applications, including food flavoring, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. Octanoic acid is also known for its antimicrobial properties and is sometimes utilized in the treatment of certain gastrointestinal disorders. Additionally, it plays a role in the production of esters for use in fragrances and as a surfactant in various industrial processes. Its CAS number, 124-07-2, is a unique identifier that helps in the classification and regulation of this chemical substance.

Octanoic acid

CAS: 124-07-2

Octanoic acid is a medium-chain fatty acid that is synthesized by the condensation of two molecules of acetyl-CoA. It is an antimicrobial agent that inhibits Gram-positive bacteria, such as Aerobacter aerogenes and Staphylococcus aureus. Octanoic acid has been shown to be effective in inhibiting the growth of Gram-negative bacteria, such as Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Octanoic acid has also been shown to have physiological effects on the human body, such as its ability to induce metabolic disorders. It is also used for energy metabolism and structural analysis.
