5,9,12-Octadecatrienoic acid, ethyl ester, (5Z,9Z,12Z)-

Description:
5,9,12-Octadecatrienoic acid, ethyl ester, commonly referred to as ethyl linoleate, is an unsaturated fatty acid ester characterized by its long carbon chain and multiple double bonds. Specifically, it contains three cis double bonds located at the 5th, 9th, and 12th carbon positions, which contribute to its reactivity and physical properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents, while being less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic nature. Ethyl linoleate is known for its nutritional and health benefits, often found in various plant oils and used in food products, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. Its structure allows it to participate in various biochemical processes, including serving as a precursor for bioactive lipids. Additionally, it exhibits antioxidant properties and may play a role in reducing inflammation. The compound's stability can be influenced by factors such as temperature and exposure to light, which can lead to oxidation and degradation over time.
