γ-Stearolactone

Description:

γ-Stearolactone, with the CAS number 502-26-1, is a cyclic ester derived from stearic acid. It is characterized by its lactone structure, which features a carbonyl group adjacent to an ether linkage, forming a five-membered ring. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and purity. γ-Stearolactone is known for its fatty, waxy odor and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, but has limited solubility in water. It is often utilized in the cosmetic and fragrance industries due to its pleasant scent and emollient properties. Additionally, γ-stearolactone can serve as a precursor in the synthesis of various chemical compounds and may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in pharmaceutical research. Its stability and relatively low toxicity further enhance its applicability in various formulations. As with any chemical substance, proper handling and safety measures should be observed to mitigate any potential risks associated with its use.
