:Docosyl (9Z,12Z)-9,12-octadecadienoate
Description:
Docosyl (9Z,12Z)-9,12-octadecadienoate, also known as docosyl linoleate, is an ester derived from the fatty acid linoleic acid and the long-chain alcohol docosanol. This compound features a long hydrocarbon chain, which contributes to its hydrophobic characteristics, making it insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. The presence of two double bonds in the 9Z and 12Z configurations indicates that it is a polyunsaturated fatty acid derivative, which can influence its reactivity and physical properties, such as melting point and viscosity. Docosyl (9Z,12Z)-9,12-octadecadienoate is typically used in various applications, including cosmetics and food products, due to its emollient properties and potential health benefits associated with unsaturated fatty acids. Additionally, its structure allows it to participate in biochemical processes, potentially affecting cell membrane fluidity and signaling pathways. As with many fatty acid esters, it may also exhibit antioxidant properties, contributing to its utility in formulations aimed at skin health and nutrition.
