Calendic acid

Description:
Calendic acid is a naturally occurring fatty acid classified as a conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). It is primarily found in the oil extracted from the seeds of the marigold plant (Calendula officinalis). This unsaturated fatty acid features a unique structure characterized by multiple double bonds, specifically in a conjugated arrangement, which contributes to its biological activity. Calendic acid is known for its potential health benefits, including anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It has garnered interest in the fields of nutrition and pharmacology for its possible roles in modulating metabolic processes and supporting skin health. The substance is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents. Its molecular structure includes a long hydrocarbon chain, which influences its physical and chemical properties, such as melting point and viscosity. As with many fatty acids, the presence of double bonds in calendic acid affects its reactivity and stability, making it an important compound in both industrial applications and research.
