Behenyl alcohol

Description:

Behenyl alcohol, also known as docosanol, is a long-chain fatty alcohol with the chemical formula C22H46O. It is characterized by its waxy, white solid appearance at room temperature and has a melting point that typically falls within the range of 60-65°C. This compound is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and chloroform. Behenyl alcohol is derived from natural sources, often extracted from the seeds of the moringa tree or synthesized from fatty acids. It is commonly used in cosmetic formulations as an emollient, emulsifier, and thickening agent, contributing to the texture and stability of creams and lotions. Additionally, it has applications in the pharmaceutical industry and as a lubricant in various industrial processes. Due to its long carbon chain, behenyl alcohol exhibits properties typical of fatty alcohols, including low volatility and a relatively high boiling point, making it suitable for use in products that require stability and a smooth feel.

1-Docosanol

CAS: 661-19-8

Docosanol is a drug that is used for the treatment of various skin disorders, including psoriasis, eczema, and ichthyosis. It is also used as an adjuvant in the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Docosanol is a lipid molecule that has been shown to have antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, and antiprotozoal properties. It can be used as a carrier for topical medications and has been shown to have anti-inflammatory effects. The mechanism of action for docosanol is not well understood but may involve its ability to bind to Toll-like receptors on macrophages and neutrophils in the skin. This binding inhibits the synthesis of inflammatory mediators such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes. Docosanol also has physiological effects on water balance by acting as a surfactant in the lungs and preventing water vapor from escaping through respiratory membranes in the nose or mouth.
