behenic anhydride (C22:0)

Description:
Behenic anhydride, with the chemical formula C22H42O3 and CAS number 55726-23-3, is a fatty acid anhydride derived from behenic acid, a long-chain saturated fatty acid. It typically appears as a white to off-white solid or waxy substance at room temperature. Behenic anhydride is characterized by its high melting point and low solubility in water, which is common for long-chain fatty acid derivatives. It is primarily used in the production of surfactants, emulsifiers, and lubricants, as well as in the formulation of cosmetics and personal care products due to its emollient properties. Additionally, it can serve as a plasticizer in various polymer applications. The substance is generally considered to have low toxicity, but like many chemical compounds, it should be handled with care to avoid potential irritation or adverse reactions. Its stability and reactivity are influenced by the presence of the anhydride functional group, making it useful in various chemical synthesis processes.
