CAS 506-38-7: Pentacosanoic acid
Description:Pentacosanoic acid, also known as pentacosylic acid, is a long-chain saturated fatty acid with the molecular formula C25H50O2. It is characterized by a straight-chain structure consisting of 25 carbon atoms and a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) at one end. This compound is typically found in various natural sources, including certain plant oils and animal fats. Pentacosanoic acid is a waxy solid at room temperature and is insoluble in water due to its long hydrophobic carbon chain, but it is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. Its melting point and boiling point are relatively high compared to shorter-chain fatty acids, reflecting its larger molecular size. Pentacosanoic acid can be used in various applications, including the production of surfactants, lubricants, and as a potential precursor in the synthesis of biofuels. Additionally, it may have implications in biochemistry and nutrition, although its specific biological roles are less well-studied compared to more common fatty acids.
