:9-Hexadecen-1-ol, (E)-
Description:
9-Hexadecen-1-ol, also known as (E)-9-hexadecen-1-ol, is a long-chain fatty alcohol characterized by its unsaturated structure, featuring a double bond located at the ninth carbon from the terminal end of the carbon chain. This compound has a molecular formula of C16H32O and is classified as a primary alcohol due to the presence of a hydroxyl (-OH) group at the end of the carbon chain. The (E) designation indicates that the double bond has a trans configuration, which influences its physical properties and reactivity. Typically, 9-hexadecen-1-ol is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a waxy texture and a mild, fatty odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. This compound is used in various applications, including as a surfactant, emulsifier, and in the synthesis of other organic compounds. Additionally, it may be found in natural sources, contributing to the fragrance and flavor profiles of certain plants and essential oils.
