:Tetradecyl acetate
Description:
Tetradecyl acetate is an organic compound classified as an ester, specifically the acetate of tetradecanol. It has the chemical formula C16H32O2 and is characterized by a long hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain, which contributes to its properties as a surfactant and emulsifier. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a mild, pleasant odor. Tetradecyl acetate is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, making it useful in various applications, including cosmetics, fragrances, and as a flavoring agent. Its relatively high boiling point and low volatility suggest stability under standard conditions. Additionally, it exhibits low toxicity, which enhances its suitability for use in consumer products. As with many esters, it can undergo hydrolysis in the presence of water and acids or bases, reverting to its alcohol and acid components. Overall, tetradecyl acetate is valued for its functional properties in formulations requiring emulsification and solubilization.

CAS:<p>Tetradecyl acetate is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of pheromones. It has antioxidative properties and has been shown to have genotoxic activity, which may be due to its ability to inhibit transcriptional regulation. Tetradecyl acetate also has a strong effect on voltage-dependent calcium channels and can act as a cyclase inhibitor. This molecule is active in vivo in humans, which may be related to its ability to inhibit HIV infection.</p>Formula:C16H32O2Purity:Min. 95%Color and Shape:Colorless PowderMolecular weight:256.42 g/mol
