Heptadecanoic acid

Description:

Heptadecanoic acid, also known as margaric acid, is a saturated fatty acid with the chemical formula C17H34O2. It is characterized by a long hydrocarbon chain consisting of 17 carbon atoms and a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) at one end. This structure contributes to its properties as a solid at room temperature, with a melting point higher than many shorter-chain fatty acids. Heptadecanoic acid is typically found in trace amounts in some animal fats and vegetable oils. It is less common than other fatty acids, such as palmitic or stearic acid. The substance is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, reflecting its hydrophobic nature. Heptadecanoic acid can be used in various applications, including the production of surfactants, lubricants, and as a potential component in biodiesel formulations. Additionally, it has been studied for its potential health effects, particularly in relation to lipid metabolism and cardiovascular health.

Heptadecanoic acid

Heptadecanoic acid is a fatty acid that is a major component of the human sebum. It has been shown to be an oxidation catalyst for polyunsaturated fatty acids and can be used in the production of caproic acid and alkanoic acid from their corresponding glycol esters. It has also been shown to have enzyme activities, such as oxidizing phospholipids and hydrolyzing triglycerides. Heptadecanoic acid is a normal constituent of human serum, but its concentration varies among individuals. It can be used as a control analysis to determine if another fatty acid is present in the sample, or it can be used as a biological sample to study energy metabolism or epidermal growth factor.
