CAS 629-70-9

Hexadecyl acetate

Description:

Hexadecyl acetate, with the CAS number 629-70-9, is an organic compound classified as an ester. It is formed from the reaction of hexadecanol (a long-chain fatty alcohol) and acetic acid. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic fatty odor. Hexadecyl acetate is known for its low solubility in water, which is common for long-chain fatty esters, but it is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. It has applications in the cosmetic and fragrance industries due to its pleasant scent and emollient properties. Additionally, it can be used as a surfactant and in the formulation of various personal care products. The compound is generally considered to have low toxicity, but like many esters, it should be handled with care to avoid skin and eye irritation. Its stability and relatively high boiling point make it suitable for various industrial applications, particularly in formulations requiring a long-lasting fragrance or emollient effect.

Hexadecyl Acetate

CAS: 629-70-9

Hexadecyl acetate is a fatty acid that is used as a solvent in chemical analyses. It is found in the form of esters in many vegetable oils, such as wheat germ oil. Hexadecyl acetate has been shown to inhibit the production of inflammatory cytokines and prostaglandins when injected into mice at physiological levels. This compound also has an inhibitory effect on receptor binding, which may be due to its ability to compete with other fatty acids for binding sites on the cell membrane. Hexadecyl acetate can be synthesized by metathesis reactions between different oleic acid derivatives.
