trans-2-Heptenal

Description:

Trans-2-heptenal is an unsaturated aldehyde characterized by its linear chain structure and the presence of a double bond between the second and third carbon atoms, along with an aldehyde functional group at one end. Its molecular formula is C7H12O, and it features a trans configuration, which influences its physical properties and reactivity. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive, pleasant odor reminiscent of green apples or fresh grass, making it of interest in the flavor and fragrance industries. Trans-2-heptenal is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. It is known for its reactivity, particularly in undergoing oxidation and addition reactions, which can lead to the formation of various derivatives. Additionally, it is used as an intermediate in organic synthesis and can be found in certain natural products. Safety considerations include its potential irritant effects, necessitating proper handling and storage protocols.

2-Heptenal is a fatty acid that is found in small quantities in the human body. It has been shown to inhibit the activity of lipases and esterases, which are enzymes that break down fats. 2-Heptenal can be used as an analog for fatty acids and as a sample preparation agent when preparing fatty acids for analysis. 2-Heptenal has been shown to exhibit degenerative disease properties, such as Alzheimer's disease. Researchers have used 2-heptenal as a model system to study the aggregation process of amyloid proteins, which may lead to the development of drugs for treatment of these diseases.
