(2Z)-2-Dodecenoic acid

Description:

(2Z)-2-Dodecenoic acid, also known as dodec-2-enoic acid, is a long-chain unsaturated fatty acid characterized by a double bond located at the second carbon from the carboxylic acid group. It has a molecular formula of C12H22O2, indicating it contains 12 carbon atoms, 22 hydrogen atoms, and 2 oxygen atoms. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The presence of the double bond introduces a degree of unsaturation, affecting its physical properties, such as melting and boiling points, compared to saturated fatty acids. (2Z)-2-Dodecenoic acid is of interest in various applications, including its potential use in the synthesis of surfactants, emulsifiers, and other chemical intermediates. Additionally, it may exhibit biological activity, making it relevant in fields such as biochemistry and nutrition. Its CAS number, 55928-65-9, is a unique identifier used for regulatory and safety purposes.
