Triheptadecanoin

Description:
Triheptadecanoin, with the CAS number 2438-40-6, is a triglyceride composed of three heptadecanoic acid (also known as margaric acid) molecules esterified to a glycerol backbone. It is a colorless to pale yellow, viscous liquid at room temperature and is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. Triheptadecanoin is characterized by its long carbon chain, which contributes to its hydrophobic nature and influences its physical properties, such as melting and boiling points. This compound is primarily used in the food industry as an emulsifier and stabilizer, as well as in cosmetic formulations for its moisturizing properties. Additionally, it may have applications in pharmaceuticals and as a potential source of biofuels due to its fatty acid composition. The presence of multiple carbon chains in its structure allows for various interactions with other molecules, making it a subject of interest in studies related to lipid chemistry and metabolism.
