7,10-Hexadecadienoic acid, methyl ester, (Z,Z)-

Description:
7,10-Hexadecadienoic acid, methyl ester, commonly referred to as methyl 7,10-hexadecadienoate, is an unsaturated fatty acid methyl ester characterized by its long carbon chain and the presence of two double bonds in the Z configuration. This compound features a 16-carbon backbone with double bonds located at the 7th and 10th positions, contributing to its unsaturation. The Z configuration indicates that the hydrogen atoms adjacent to the double bonds are on the same side, which influences the compound's physical properties, such as its melting point and reactivity. Methyl 7,10-hexadecadienoate is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic fatty odor. It is soluble in organic solvents and has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. This compound is of interest in various fields, including biochemistry and materials science, as it can serve as a precursor for the synthesis of more complex molecules or as a component in biodiesel production. Its unique structure also makes it a subject of study in the context of fatty acid metabolism and nutrition.
