S-3-Hydroxytetradecanoic acid

Description:

S-3-Hydroxytetradecanoic acid, also known as 3-hydroxytetradecanoic acid, is a fatty acid characterized by a long hydrocarbon chain with a hydroxyl group (-OH) located at the third carbon position. This compound typically features a 14-carbon backbone, making it a medium-chain fatty acid. It is a white to off-white solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The presence of the hydroxyl group imparts unique properties, such as increased polarity and potential for hydrogen bonding, which can influence its reactivity and interactions with other molecules. S-3-Hydroxytetradecanoic acid is of interest in various fields, including biochemistry and materials science, due to its potential applications in surfactants, emulsifiers, and as a building block for more complex molecules. Its biological significance may also be explored in the context of lipid metabolism and cellular functions.
