1-O-Hexadecylglycerol

Description:

1-O-Hexadecylglycerol, with the CAS number 6145-69-3, is a synthetic lipid compound characterized by its long hydrophobic alkyl chain and a glycerol backbone. This molecule features a hexadecyl group (a 16-carbon saturated fatty acid chain) attached to the first carbon of glycerol, making it a type of glycerolipid. Its amphiphilic nature allows it to interact with both hydrophilic and hydrophobic environments, which is beneficial in various applications, including drug delivery systems and as a surfactant. The compound is typically a white to off-white solid or viscous liquid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic characteristics. 1-O-Hexadecylglycerol has been studied for its potential biological activities, including its role in membrane structure and function, as well as its use in research related to cell signaling and lipid metabolism. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance.

1-O-Hexadecyl-rac-glycerol (1OHR) is a synthetic compound that has been shown to inhibit the growth of leukemia and other cells in vitro. It inhibits the activity of enzymes involved in carbohydrate chemistry, such as benzalkonium chloride, surface glycoprotein, monoclonal antibody, and enzyme activities. It also causes cytosolic Ca2+ release from intracellular stores and decreases the concentration of intracellular calcium. 1OHR has a minimal toxicity for mammalian cells and does not inhibit protein synthesis.
