2-Tetradecylcyclobutanone

Description:

2-Tetradecylcyclobutanone is an organic compound characterized by its unique cyclobutanone structure, which features a four-membered carbon ring with a ketone functional group. The presence of a tetradecyl chain, consisting of 14 carbon atoms, contributes to its hydrophobic properties, making it less soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on temperature and purity. Its molecular structure suggests potential applications in various fields, including fragrance and flavor industries, due to its ability to impart specific scents or tastes. Additionally, the compound may exhibit interesting biological activities, although specific studies on its pharmacological properties may be limited. As with many organic compounds, handling should be done with care, considering potential health and environmental impacts. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are recommended when working with this substance in laboratory or industrial settings.
