heneicosanoic acid, ethyl ester

Description:
Heneicosanoic acid, ethyl ester, also known as ethyl heneicosanoate, is an ester derived from heneicosanoic acid and ethanol. It is characterized by a long carbon chain, specifically containing 21 carbon atoms, which contributes to its hydrophobic properties. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a waxy texture and a faint fatty odor. It is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, reflecting its non-polar nature. Heneicosanoic acid, ethyl ester is used in various applications, including as a flavoring agent, fragrance component, and in the formulation of cosmetics and personal care products. Its relatively high molecular weight and long carbon chain make it a subject of interest in studies related to lipid chemistry and the development of bio-based materials. Additionally, it may exhibit properties such as low volatility and stability under standard conditions, making it suitable for use in various industrial applications.
