CAS 33783-76-5: Cholest-5-en-3-ol (3b)-,(10E,12Z)-9-hydroxy-10,12-octadecadienoate (9CI)

Description: Cholest-5-en-3-ol (3b)-,(10E,12Z)-9-hydroxy-10,12-octadecadienoate, commonly referred to by its CAS number 33783-76-5, is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of sterols and fatty acid esters. This substance features a steroid backbone, characterized by a four-ring structure typical of sterols, along with a hydroxy group at the 3-position and a long-chain fatty acid moiety. The presence of the double bonds in the octadecadienoate portion indicates that it has unsaturated fatty acid characteristics, which can influence its physical properties and biological activity. The specific stereochemistry, denoted by the (10E,12Z) configuration, suggests that the compound has distinct geometric isomers that can affect its reactivity and interactions in biological systems. Cholest-5-en-3-ol derivatives are often studied for their roles in cell membrane structure and function, as well as their potential implications in various biochemical pathways. Overall, this compound exemplifies the complex interplay between sterols and fatty acids in biological systems.
