CAS 39756-30-4

(~2~H_31_)hexadecanoic acid

Description:

The chemical substance known as hexadecanoic acid, with the CAS number 39756-30-4, is a saturated fatty acid commonly referred to as palmitic acid. It is characterized by a long hydrocarbon chain consisting of 16 carbon atoms, with a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) at one end. This structure contributes to its hydrophobic nature, making it insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. Hexadecanoic acid is typically found in animal and plant fats, and it plays a significant role in various biological processes, including energy storage and membrane structure. It is also used in the production of soaps, cosmetics, and food additives. The melting point of hexadecanoic acid is relatively high compared to unsaturated fatty acids, which is attributed to its straight-chain structure that allows for efficient packing in solid form. Additionally, it can undergo various chemical reactions, including esterification and hydrogenation, making it versatile in industrial applications.

Palmitic Acid-d31

Controlled Product

CAS: 39756-30-4

Applications Palmitic Acid-d31 is the isotope labelled analog of Palmitic Acid (P144500); a common fatty acid found in plants and animals. The body converts excess carbohydrates into Palmitic Acid, thus Palmitic Acid is the first fatty acid produced during fatty acid synthesis as well as a precursor for longer fatty acids.
