Decanoic acid

Description:

Decanoic acid, also known as capric acid, is a saturated fatty acid with the chemical formula C10H20O2. It is characterized by a straight-chain structure consisting of ten carbon atoms, with a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) at one end. This compound is a colorless, oily liquid at room temperature and has a distinctive, slightly unpleasant odor reminiscent of rancid butter. Decanoic acid is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. It is commonly found in coconut oil and palm kernel oil and is used in various applications, including food flavoring, cosmetics, and as a surfactant in industrial processes. Additionally, decanoic acid has potential health benefits, as it is a medium-chain fatty acid that can be metabolized quickly for energy. Its antimicrobial properties also make it of interest in food preservation and health-related research. Overall, decanoic acid is a versatile compound with significant industrial and biological relevance.

Decanoic acid

CAS: 334-48-5

Decanoic acid is a saturated fatty acid that has been used as a pharmaceutical agent for the treatment of congestive heart failure. Decanoic acid is also used in the production of glycol ethers and as an intermediate in organic synthesis. The melting point of decanoic acid is between 30 and 35 degrees Celsius, which is lower than the melting points of caproic acid (40 degress) or lauric acid (45 degrees Celsius). Decanoic acid has been shown to reduce blood glucose levels in diabetic mice and rats and has also been shown to have antimicrobial activity against c. glabrata, S. aureus, and E. coli. Decanoic acid may be effective as an adjuvant therapy for melanoma by inducing apoptosis through mitochondrial membrane potential disruption.
