CAS 505-90-8

cis-4-Decenoic acid

Description:

Cis-4-Decenoic acid, with the CAS number 505-90-8, is an unsaturated fatty acid characterized by a long hydrocarbon chain containing a double bond in the cis configuration. This compound has a total of ten carbon atoms, making it a decenoic acid. The presence of the double bond at the fourth carbon from the carboxylic acid end contributes to its reactivity and influences its physical properties. Typically, cis-4-Decenoic acid is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature, exhibiting a characteristic fatty odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. This fatty acid is used in various applications, including the synthesis of surfactants, emulsifiers, and other chemical intermediates. Additionally, its unique structure allows it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as hydrogenation and polymerization, making it valuable in the production of specialty chemicals and materials. As with many unsaturated fatty acids, it may also have implications in biological systems and nutrition.
