CAS 4144-60-9
:6-Oxodecanoic acid
Description:
6-Oxodecanoic acid, with the CAS number 4144-60-9, is a fatty acid derivative characterized by a carboxylic acid functional group and a ketone group located at the sixth carbon of the decanoic acid chain. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic alkyl chain. The presence of both the ketone and carboxylic acid functional groups allows for various chemical reactivity, including potential participation in esterification and oxidation reactions. 6-Oxodecanoic acid is of interest in biochemical research and industrial applications, particularly in the synthesis of surfactants, lubricants, and other chemical intermediates. Its unique structure may also influence its biological activity, making it a subject of study in fields such as pharmacology and biochemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
