:

(6E)-8-methylnon-6-enoic acid

Description:
(6E)-8-methylnon-6-enoic acid, with the CAS number 21382-25-2, is an unsaturated fatty acid characterized by a long carbon chain and a double bond in its structure. This compound features a trans configuration at the double bond, which influences its physical properties and reactivity. The presence of the methyl group at the eighth carbon position contributes to its branched structure, affecting its melting and boiling points compared to straight-chain fatty acids. Typically, unsaturated fatty acids like this one exhibit lower melting points and are more likely to remain liquid at room temperature. The acid functional group (-COOH) imparts acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and amidation. This compound may be of interest in organic synthesis, biochemistry, and potentially in the development of bioactive compounds. Its specific applications and behavior in biological systems would depend on further studies and context within chemical and biological frameworks.
