Hexadecanoic-14,14,14-d3acid, sodium salt (9CI)

Description:

Hexadecanoic-14,14,14-d3 acid, sodium salt (9CI), also known as sodium palmitate-d3, is a deuterated form of palmitic acid, a saturated fatty acid with a long carbon chain. The presence of deuterium isotopes at the 14th carbon position indicates that this compound is used in various research applications, particularly in studies involving metabolic pathways and lipid metabolism. As a sodium salt, it is typically more soluble in water compared to its free acid form, which enhances its utility in biological and chemical applications. Hexadecanoic acid is known for its role in the formation of cell membranes and as a component of triglycerides. Its deuterated form allows for tracking and quantification in mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy. The compound is generally stable under standard conditions, but like other fatty acids, it may undergo oxidation if exposed to air or light. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
