CAS 29662-90-6
:2,2-Dimethyloctanoic acid
Description:
2,2-Dimethyloctanoic acid, with the CAS number 29662-90-6, is a branched-chain fatty acid characterized by its unique structure, which includes two methyl groups attached to the second carbon of an octanoic acid backbone. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and possesses a distinct fatty odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The presence of the carboxylic acid functional group imparts acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as esterification and amidation. 2,2-Dimethyloctanoic acid is often utilized in the synthesis of surfactants, lubricants, and plasticizers, as well as in the formulation of specialty chemicals. Its branched structure contributes to its unique physical and chemical properties, making it valuable in industrial applications. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance.

CAS:<p>2,2-Dimethyloctanoic acid is a fatty acid that has been shown to increase the uptake of radioactive butyric acid in the rat. It is also known to be an intermediate in the metabolism of dodecyl and hexadecanoic acids. 2,2-Dimethyloctanoic acid has been shown to have anti-depressant effects in animals. The mechanism for this effect may be due to its ability to increase fatty acid metabolism in mitochondria.</p>Formula:C10H20O2Purity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:172.26 g/mol
