1,2-Epoxytetradecane

Description:

1,2-Epoxytetradecane, with the CAS number 3234-28-4, is a cyclic ether that belongs to the class of epoxides, which are characterized by a three-membered cyclic ether structure. This compound is derived from tetradecane, a straight-chain alkane with fourteen carbon atoms, by the introduction of an epoxide functional group at the first and second carbon positions. The presence of the epoxide group imparts unique reactivity, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of various chemical derivatives. 1,2-Epoxytetradecane is typically a colorless liquid at room temperature and exhibits low solubility in water due to its hydrophobic alkane chain, while being more soluble in organic solvents. Its chemical properties include the ability to undergo ring-opening reactions in the presence of nucleophiles, which can lead to the formation of alcohols or other functional groups. As with many epoxides, it may pose health hazards, necessitating careful handling and appropriate safety measures during use.

1,2-Epoxytetradecane is a fatty acid that is structurally similar to inulin. It has been shown to be an activating agent for the epoxidation of olefins with homogeneous catalysts. Epoxytetradecane also can react with chloride ions to form epoxide esters. 1,2-Epoxytetradecane reacts with potassium ion to form a fluorescent compound. The hydrophobic effect may be responsible for the immobilization of fatty acids on surfaces. Epoxytetradecane has been studied as a potential treatment for epithelial cancers and fetal bovine serum (FBS) has been used as a model for human tissue in biological studies of epoxytetradecane effects.
