CAS 601-34-3: Cholesteryl palmitate
Description:Cholesteryl palmitate is an ester formed from cholesterol and palmitic acid, characterized by its role as a lipid compound. It is a white to off-white solid at room temperature and is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as chloroform and ethanol. This compound is notable for its presence in biological membranes and its involvement in lipid metabolism. Cholesteryl palmitate exhibits a melting point that reflects its crystalline nature, and it is often studied for its implications in biochemistry and pharmacology, particularly in relation to cholesterol transport and storage. The substance is also of interest in the field of drug delivery systems, where it can influence the solubility and stability of pharmaceutical formulations. Additionally, cholesteryl palmitate can serve as a model compound for studying lipid interactions and the behavior of lipids in various environments. Its CAS number, 601-34-3, is used for identification in chemical databases and regulatory contexts.
