CAS 13487-46-2

:

arachidonyl alcohol approx 99%

Description:
Arachidonyl alcohol, with the CAS number 13487-46-2, is a fatty alcohol derived from arachidonic acid, a polyunsaturated omega-6 fatty acid. This compound is characterized by its long hydrocarbon chain, which typically consists of 20 carbon atoms, and a hydroxyl group (-OH) that contributes to its classification as an alcohol. Arachidonyl alcohol is known for its role in various biological processes, including its involvement in the synthesis of bioactive lipids and signaling molecules. It exhibits hydrophobic properties due to its long carbon chain, making it less soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents. The substance is often utilized in biochemical research and may have implications in pharmacology and the study of lipid metabolism. Its high purity level, indicated by "approx 99%," suggests that it is suitable for sensitive applications where contaminants could interfere with experimental results. As with many fatty alcohols, it may also exhibit surfactant properties, influencing its behavior in biological systems and formulations.
