:cis-5-Octadecenoic acid
Description:
Cis-5-Octadecenoic acid, also known as cis-5-octadecenoate or by its common name, petroselinic acid, is a monounsaturated fatty acid characterized by a long hydrocarbon chain with a double bond located at the fifth carbon from the carboxylic acid end. Its molecular formula is C18H34O2, and it features a cis configuration, which influences its physical properties and biological functions. This fatty acid is typically found in certain plant oils, particularly in coriander and some other herbs. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents but less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic nature. Cis-5-Octadecenoic acid is known for its potential health benefits, including anti-inflammatory properties and its role in lipid metabolism. Additionally, it is utilized in various applications, including food, cosmetics, and as a potential biofuel. Its unique structure and properties make it a subject of interest in both nutritional science and industrial applications.
