Tetradecanoic-d27acid, potassium salt (9CI)

Description:

Tetradecanoic-d27 acid, potassium salt (9CI), with the CAS number 352438-87-0, is a deuterated form of tetradecanoic acid, also known as myristic acid. This compound is characterized by its long hydrocarbon chain, consisting of 14 carbon atoms, and the presence of deuterium isotopes, which are heavier forms of hydrogen. The potassium salt form indicates that the carboxylic acid group has been neutralized by potassium, enhancing its solubility in water and making it suitable for various applications. Tetradecanoic-d27 acid is often used in research and analytical chemistry, particularly in studies involving lipid metabolism and as a standard in mass spectrometry due to its unique isotopic signature. Its physical properties include a relatively high melting point and a waxy texture at room temperature, typical of fatty acids. Additionally, the presence of deuterium can provide insights into metabolic pathways and molecular interactions in biological systems. Overall, this compound serves as a valuable tool in both scientific research and industrial applications.
