trans-9,10-epoxystearic acid

Description:
Trans-9,10-epoxystearic acid is a chemical compound classified as an epoxide, specifically an epoxidized fatty acid derived from stearic acid. It features a three-membered cyclic ether structure, which is formed by the reaction of stearic acid with an oxidizing agent. This compound is characterized by its unique stereochemistry, with the trans configuration around the double bond in the fatty acid chain. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on temperature and purity. Trans-9,10-epoxystearic acid exhibits properties such as low solubility in water but good solubility in organic solvents, making it useful in various applications, including as a surfactant, emulsifier, or plasticizer in the production of polymers and coatings. Additionally, its epoxide group can participate in further chemical reactions, allowing for the modification of its structure to enhance functionality in industrial applications. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with all chemical substances.
