:Ethyl (6Z)-6-octadecenoate
Description:
Ethyl (6Z)-6-octadecenoate, also known as ethyl oleate, is an ester derived from oleic acid and ethanol. It is characterized by its long hydrocarbon chain, which contributes to its hydrophobic properties. The "6Z" designation indicates the presence of a cis double bond at the sixth carbon position, which influences its physical properties, such as melting and boiling points. Ethyl (6Z)-6-octadecenoate is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic fatty odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its nonpolar nature. This compound is commonly used in the food industry as a flavoring agent and in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals as an emollient and solvent. Additionally, it can serve as a model compound in studies of lipid metabolism and fatty acid behavior. Its stability and reactivity can be influenced by factors such as temperature and the presence of light, making it important to store it properly to maintain its integrity.
