Description:

12,15-Octadecadienoic acid, 9,10,11-trihydroxy-, (9S,10S,11R,12Z,15Z)-, also known by its CAS number 339186-37-7, is a polyunsaturated fatty acid characterized by its long carbon chain and multiple double bonds. This compound features a total of 18 carbon atoms, with two cis double bonds located at the 12th and 15th positions, contributing to its unsaturated nature. The presence of three hydroxyl (-OH) groups at the 9th, 10th, and 11th positions enhances its reactivity and solubility in polar solvents. The specific stereochemistry indicated by the (9S,10S,11R) configuration suggests a particular spatial arrangement of the hydroxyl groups, which can influence the compound's biological activity and interactions with other molecules. This fatty acid is of interest in various fields, including biochemistry and nutrition, due to its potential roles in cellular signaling and as a precursor for bioactive lipids. Its unique structure may also contribute to its functionality in various physiological processes.
