Methyl (11Z,14Z)-icosa-11,14-dienoate is an organic compound characterized by its long carbon chain and specific double bond configurations. It belongs to the class of fatty acid esters, specifically methyl esters, which are formed from the reaction of fatty acids with methanol. This compound features a 20-carbon chain (icosa-) with two double bonds located at the 11th and 14th positions, both in the Z (cis) configuration, which influences its physical properties and reactivity. The presence of these double bonds contributes to its unsaturation, affecting its melting point, boiling point, and solubility in various solvents. Methyl (11Z,14Z)-icosa-11,14-dienoate may be of interest in various applications, including biochemistry and materials science, due to its potential as a precursor for bioactive compounds or as a component in the synthesis of more complex molecules. Its specific characteristics, such as stability and reactivity, can be influenced by environmental factors and the presence of other chemical species.
