Asterric acid

Description:
Asterric acid, with the CAS number 577-64-0, is a naturally occurring fatty acid that is classified as a branched-chain fatty acid. It is primarily derived from certain types of bacteria and is notable for its unique structure, which includes a branched alkyl chain. This structural characteristic influences its physical and chemical properties, such as its melting point and solubility. Asterric acid is typically found in the form of its salts or esters, which can exhibit different properties compared to the free acid. It is of interest in various fields, including biochemistry and materials science, due to its potential applications in the synthesis of surfactants, emulsifiers, and other chemical intermediates. Additionally, its role in biological systems, particularly in microbial metabolism, highlights its significance in ecological and environmental studies. Overall, asterric acid represents a fascinating subject of study due to its unique characteristics and potential applications in both industrial and biological contexts.
