Methyl tetracosanoate

Description:

Methyl tetracosanoate, with the CAS number 2442-49-1, is an ester derived from tetracosanoic acid (a long-chain fatty acid) and methanol. It is characterized by its long hydrocarbon chain, which typically imparts hydrophobic properties, making it less soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents. This compound is a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid at room temperature, depending on its specific form and purity. Methyl tetracosanoate is known for its applications in various fields, including as a potential biofuel, in the production of surfactants, and in the formulation of lubricants due to its favorable viscosity characteristics. Its long carbon chain contributes to its stability and resistance to oxidation, making it suitable for use in formulations requiring longevity. Additionally, it may exhibit low toxicity, but safety data should always be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines. Overall, methyl tetracosanoate is a significant compound in both industrial and research applications, particularly in the study of fatty acid esters.
