Description:

1-Propanaminium, 3-carboxy-N,N,N-trimethyl-2-[[(5Z,8Z,11Z,14Z,17Z)-1-oxo-5,8,11,14,17-eicosapentaen-1-yl]oxy]-, chloride (1:1), (2R)- is a quaternary ammonium compound characterized by its complex structure, which includes a long-chain fatty acid derivative and a trimethylammonium group. This compound is likely to exhibit amphiphilic properties due to the presence of both hydrophilic (the ammonium and carboxylate groups) and hydrophobic (the long eicosapentaenoic acid chain) regions. Such characteristics make it potentially useful in various applications, including as a surfactant, emulsifier, or in drug delivery systems. The chloride ion indicates that it is a salt, which may influence its solubility and stability in aqueous environments. Additionally, the presence of multiple double bonds in the fatty acid chain suggests that it may have specific biological activities, possibly related to its interaction with cell membranes or its role in lipid metabolism. Overall, this compound's unique structure and properties could make it valuable in biochemical and pharmaceutical research.

CAS: 2133456-02-5

Eicosapentaenoyl-L-carnitine chloride is a long-chain acylcarnitine comprised of Eicosapentaenoic Acid and L-Carnitine. In a mouse model of myopia induced by defocus lenses, mice fed with diets rich in n-3/n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) showed increased levels of Eicosapentaenoyl-L-carnitine chloride in their eyes.
