17-Bromoheptadecanoic acid

Description:
17-Bromoheptadecanoic acid is a long-chain fatty acid characterized by the presence of a bromine atom at the 17th carbon position of the heptadecanoic acid backbone. This compound features a straight-chain structure typical of fatty acids, with a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) at one end, which imparts acidic properties. The bromine substitution introduces unique reactivity, making it useful in various chemical synthesis applications, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The presence of the bromine atom can also influence the compound's physical properties, such as melting and boiling points, solubility, and reactivity. As a fatty acid derivative, it is likely to exhibit hydrophobic characteristics, although the bromine may enhance its interaction with polar solvents. Additionally, 17-bromoheptadecanoic acid can serve as a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis, allowing for the introduction of further functional groups through nucleophilic substitution reactions. Its specific applications and behavior in biological systems would depend on its interactions with other molecules and its overall chemical stability.
