3-(octanoyloxy)-4-(trimethylammonio)butanoate

Description:

3-(Octanoyloxy)-4-(trimethylammonio)butanoate, also known by its CAS number 14919-35-8, is a quaternary ammonium compound characterized by its amphiphilic nature, which includes both hydrophobic (octanoyloxy) and hydrophilic (trimethylammonio) components. This dual nature allows it to interact with both lipophilic and hydrophilic environments, making it useful in various applications, including as a surfactant or emulsifying agent. The presence of the octanoyloxy group contributes to its fatty acid characteristics, while the trimethylammonio group imparts positive charge, enhancing its solubility in water and ability to form micelles. This compound may exhibit biological activity, potentially influencing cell membrane interactions or serving as a drug delivery vehicle. Its stability and reactivity can be influenced by pH and ionic strength of the surrounding medium. Overall, 3-(octanoyloxy)-4-(trimethylammonio)butanoate is significant in both industrial and pharmaceutical contexts due to its unique structural properties.
