10,12-Octadecadienoic acid, methyl ester, (E,Z)-

Description:
10,12-Octadecadienoic acid, methyl ester, commonly known as methyl 10,12-octadecadienoate, is a fatty acid methyl ester derived from the unsaturated fatty acid octadecadienoic acid. It features a long hydrocarbon chain with two double bonds located at the 10th and 12th carbon positions, which are in the trans (E) and cis (Z) configurations, respectively. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. It is known for its role in various biological processes and is often studied for its potential applications in the fields of nutrition, biochemistry, and as a precursor in the synthesis of biodiesel. The presence of double bonds contributes to its reactivity and potential health benefits, including anti-inflammatory properties. Additionally, it is important in the context of lipid metabolism and can be found in certain plant oils.
