(3S)-3-(2-methoxy-2-oxoethyl)-5-methylhexanoic acid

Description:

(3S)-3-(2-methoxy-2-oxoethyl)-5-methylhexanoic acid, identified by its CAS number 181289-25-8, is a chiral compound characterized by its specific stereochemistry at the third carbon atom, which is crucial for its biological activity. This substance features a hexanoic acid backbone, indicating it is a medium-chain fatty acid derivative. The presence of a methoxy group and a ketone functionality on the ethyl side chain contributes to its unique chemical properties, potentially influencing its solubility and reactivity. The compound is likely to exhibit polar characteristics due to the functional groups, which may enhance its interactions in biological systems. Additionally, the methyl group at the fifth position can affect the steric hindrance and overall conformation of the molecule. Such structural features suggest that it may have applications in pharmaceuticals or biochemistry, particularly in the synthesis of more complex molecules or as a potential bioactive agent. However, specific biological activities and applications would require further investigation and characterization.
