:Hexacosane
Description:
Hexacosane is a straight-chain alkane with the molecular formula C26H54. It is a colorless, odorless solid at room temperature and is part of the larger family of alkanes, which are saturated hydrocarbons. Hexacosane has a high melting point and low solubility in water, making it hydrophobic. Its structure consists of a long carbon chain, which contributes to its waxy texture and solid state at ambient temperatures. Hexacosane is commonly found in nature, particularly in the waxy coatings of plants and in certain types of beeswax. It is used in various applications, including as a standard in the determination of melting points and in the formulation of cosmetics and personal care products due to its emollient properties. Additionally, hexacosane can serve as a model compound in studies of hydrocarbon behavior and is utilized in research related to phase change materials. Its stability and non-reactivity under standard conditions make it a useful compound in both industrial and laboratory settings.

CAS:<p>Hexacosane is an unsaturated hydrocarbon with a boiling point of about 210°C. Hexacosane is a natural product that has been shown to have antibacterial efficacy against Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pneumoniae, although it has not been tested for activity against other bacteria. Hexacosane has also shown some success in treating autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. This compound is metabolized by human metabolism, but the metabolic pathways are not yet known. The hydrophobic effect of hexacosane may be due to its ability to inhibit the growth of microorganisms by preventing the synthesis of fatty acids that are necessary for bacterial growth.</p>Formula:C26H54Purity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:366.71 g/mol
