7-Pentacosene, (Z)- is an unsaturated hydrocarbon belonging to the class of alkenes, specifically a long-chain fatty acid derivative. It features a carbon chain consisting of 25 carbon atoms with a double bond located at the seventh carbon from one end, which is in the cis (Z) configuration. This configuration influences its physical properties, such as melting and boiling points, making it generally more fluid compared to its trans isomer. The presence of the double bond contributes to its reactivity, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions typical of alkenes, such as hydrogenation and polymerization. 7-Pentacosene is typically found in certain natural oils and can be synthesized through various organic reactions. Its applications may include use in organic synthesis, as a potential biofuel, or in the study of lipid chemistry. As with many long-chain hydrocarbons, it is likely to be hydrophobic and may exhibit low solubility in water while being soluble in organic solvents. Safety and handling precautions should be observed due to its potential reactivity and environmental impact.
