6-Octadecen-1-ol, (E)-

Description:
6-Octadecen-1-ol, commonly referred to as (E)-6-Octadecen-1-ol, is a long-chain fatty alcohol characterized by its unsaturated structure, featuring a double bond in the trans configuration at the sixth carbon from the terminal end of the molecule. This compound has a molecular formula of C18H36O and is part of the family of aliphatic alcohols. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a waxy texture and a mild, fatty odor. The presence of the double bond contributes to its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical applications, including as an intermediate in the synthesis of surfactants, emulsifiers, and other specialty chemicals. Additionally, (E)-6-Octadecen-1-ol exhibits hydrophobic properties, which can influence its solubility in different solvents. It is also of interest in the cosmetic and personal care industries due to its emollient properties. Safety data indicates that, like many fatty alcohols, it should be handled with care to avoid skin and eye irritation.
