9,10,12,13,15,16-hexabromooctadecanoic acid

Description:

9,10,12,13,15,16-hexabromooctadecanoic acid, with the CAS number 4167-08-2, is a brominated fatty acid that belongs to the class of organobromine compounds. This substance is characterized by the presence of six bromine atoms attached to an octadecanoic acid backbone, which consists of an 18-carbon chain with a carboxylic acid functional group. The extensive bromination enhances its flame-retardant properties, making it useful in various applications, particularly in plastics and textiles. The compound is typically solid at room temperature and exhibits low solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature, while being more soluble in organic solvents. Its chemical stability and resistance to degradation are notable, which can raise environmental concerns regarding persistence and bioaccumulation. Additionally, the presence of multiple bromine atoms can influence its reactivity and interactions with biological systems, necessitating careful handling and assessment of its safety profile in industrial and environmental contexts.
