Octadecanoic acid,2-[(1-oxohexadecyl)oxy]-1-[[(1-oxohexadecyl)oxy]methyl]ethyl ester

Description:
Octadecanoic acid, 2-[(1-oxohexadecyl)oxy]-1-[[(1-oxohexadecyl)oxy]methyl]ethyl ester, commonly known as a type of fatty acid ester, is characterized by its long hydrocarbon chains and ester functional groups. This compound features a backbone derived from octadecanoic acid (stearic acid), which is a saturated fatty acid with 18 carbon atoms. The presence of hexadecyl groups indicates that it has additional long-chain fatty acid components, contributing to its hydrophobic nature. The structure suggests that it may exhibit emulsifying properties, making it useful in various applications, including cosmetics, food, and pharmaceuticals. Its molecular structure also implies potential bioactivity, as fatty acid esters can interact with biological membranes and influence cellular processes. The compound is likely to be solid at room temperature due to its long-chain fatty acid composition, and it may have low solubility in water but higher solubility in organic solvents. Overall, this substance exemplifies the characteristics typical of long-chain fatty acid esters, including stability, hydrophobicity, and potential utility in diverse formulations.
