cis-7,10,13,16-docosatetraenoic acid*methyl ester

Description:
Cis-7,10,13,16-docosatetraenoic acid methyl ester, also known as methyl cis-7,10,13,16-docosatetraenoate, is a methyl ester derived from a polyunsaturated fatty acid. This compound features a long carbon chain with four double bonds located at specific positions, which contributes to its unsaturated nature. The "cis" configuration indicates that the hydrogen atoms adjacent to the double bonds are on the same side, influencing its physical properties and biological activity. Typically, such methyl esters are oily liquids at room temperature, exhibiting low viscosity and a relatively low melting point compared to saturated fatty acids. They are soluble in organic solvents but have limited solubility in water. This compound is of interest in various fields, including biochemistry and nutrition, due to its potential role in human health and its applications in the synthesis of bioactive lipids. Additionally, it may be involved in studies related to fatty acid metabolism and the development of functional foods or nutraceuticals.
