4,7,10,13-Hexadecatetraenoicacid, (4Z,7Z,10Z,13Z)-

Description:
4,7,10,13-Hexadecatetraenoic acid, also known by its systematic name (4Z,7Z,10Z,13Z)-hexadeca-4,7,10,13-tetraenoic acid, is a polyunsaturated fatty acid characterized by the presence of four double bonds in its carbon chain. This compound typically features a long hydrocarbon chain consisting of 16 carbon atoms, with the double bonds located at the 4th, 7th, 10th, and 13th positions, all in the cis configuration. The presence of multiple double bonds contributes to its reactivity and influences its physical properties, such as melting point and solubility. As a fatty acid, it plays a role in various biological processes and can be found in certain plant oils and marine sources. Its structure allows it to participate in the formation of complex lipids and may have implications in nutrition and health, particularly in relation to cardiovascular health and inflammation. However, due to its unsaturated nature, it is also susceptible to oxidation, which can affect its stability and shelf life.
