CAS 56683-54-6
:(Z)-11-Hexadecenol
Description:
(Z)-11-Hexadecenol, with the CAS number 56683-54-6, is a long-chain fatty alcohol characterized by its specific geometric configuration and molecular structure. It features a 16-carbon chain with a double bond located at the 11th carbon, which is in the cis (Z) configuration, influencing its physical and chemical properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a waxy texture and a mild, fatty odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. (Z)-11-Hexadecenol is often used in the fragrance and flavor industry, as well as in the formulation of cosmetic products, due to its pleasant scent and emollient properties. Additionally, it can serve as a pheromone in certain insect species, playing a role in communication and mating behaviors. Its stability and reactivity can vary depending on environmental conditions, making it an interesting subject for studies in organic chemistry and biochemistry.
