Phenol,2-(10Z)-10-heptadecen-1-yl-4,6-dimethoxy-

Description:

Phenol, 2-(10Z)-10-heptadecen-1-yl-4,6-dimethoxy- is an organic compound characterized by its phenolic structure, which includes a hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to a benzene ring. The compound features a long aliphatic chain, specifically a heptadecenyl group, indicating it has a 17-carbon backbone with a double bond at the 10th position, contributing to its unsaturation. The presence of two methoxy groups (-OCH3) at the 4 and 6 positions on the benzene ring enhances its lipophilicity and may influence its biological activity. This compound is likely to exhibit properties typical of both phenolic compounds and long-chain fatty acids, such as potential antioxidant activity and interactions with biological membranes. Its unique structure may also suggest applications in fields like biochemistry, materials science, or as a potential intermediate in organic synthesis. However, specific physical properties such as melting point, boiling point, and solubility would require empirical data for precise characterization.
