CAS 1731-92-6: methyl heptadecanoate

Description: Methyl heptadecanoate, with the CAS number 1731-92-6, is an ester derived from heptadecanoic acid and methanol. It is characterized by its long hydrocarbon chain, consisting of 17 carbon atoms, which contributes to its hydrophobic nature. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a waxy texture and a faint fatty odor. Methyl heptadecanoate is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, reflecting its non-polar characteristics. It has applications in the food industry as a flavoring agent and in the cosmetic industry as an emollient. Additionally, it can serve as a model compound in studies of lipid behavior and metabolism due to its structural similarity to natural fatty acids. The compound's physical properties, such as boiling point and melting point, are influenced by its molecular weight and structure, making it relevant in various chemical and industrial applications. Safety data indicates that, while it may cause irritation upon contact, it is generally considered to have low toxicity.
