1-Tetracosanol

Description:
1-Tetracosanol, with the CAS number 506-51-4, is a long-chain primary alcohol that belongs to the class of fatty alcohols. It is characterized by a straight-chain structure consisting of 24 carbon atoms and a hydroxyl (-OH) functional group at one end. This compound is typically a white, waxy solid at room temperature and is insoluble in water due to its hydrophobic nature, but it is soluble in organic solvents like ethanol and chloroform. 1-Tetracosanol is known for its use in various applications, including as an emulsifier, surfactant, and in the formulation of cosmetics and personal care products. Additionally, it can serve as a lubricant and is studied for its potential role in biochemistry and pharmacology. Its long carbon chain contributes to its physical properties, such as a high melting point and low volatility. Overall, 1-tetracosanol is significant in both industrial applications and research contexts due to its unique structural characteristics and functional properties.
