Tetracosanoic acid

Description:

Tetracosanoic acid, also known as lignoceric acid, is a long-chain saturated fatty acid with the chemical formula C24H48O2. It is characterized by a straight-chain structure consisting of 24 carbon atoms and a carboxylic acid functional group at one end. This compound is typically found in various natural sources, including certain plant oils and animal fats. Tetracosanoic acid is solid at room temperature and has a high melting point due to its long carbon chain, which contributes to its waxy texture. It is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. Tetracosanoic acid is of interest in various fields, including biochemistry and materials science, where it may be used in the synthesis of surfactants, emulsifiers, and other chemical intermediates. Additionally, it plays a role in the study of lipid metabolism and can be involved in the formation of lipid bilayers in biological membranes.

Tetracosanoic acid is a biocompatible polymer that is synthesized by esterification of malonic acid with poly(ethylene glycol). This polymer has been shown to have biological properties and can be used as an analytical method in the detection of infectious diseases. Tetracosanoic acid has also been shown to inhibit HIV-1 infection in vitro. Tetracosanoic acid is a model system for studying the molecular interactions that occur during autoimmune diseases.
