Hexadecanoic-9,9-d2 acid, also known as deuterated palmitic acid, is a saturated fatty acid characterized by a long hydrocarbon chain consisting of 16 carbon atoms. The "9,9-d2" designation indicates that two deuterium atoms (heavy hydrogen isotopes) are incorporated at the ninth carbon position, which is significant for applications in isotopic labeling and tracing studies in biochemical research. This compound is typically a white, waxy solid at room temperature and is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. Its molecular structure contributes to its role in various biological processes, including membrane formation and energy storage. Hexadecanoic acid is commonly found in animal fats and vegetable oils, and its deuterated form is utilized in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and other analytical techniques to study lipid metabolism and interactions. The CAS number 272442-14-5 uniquely identifies this specific isotopologue, facilitating its recognition in scientific literature and databases.
