:9,12,15,18,21-Tetracosapentaenoic acid, (9Z,12Z,15Z,18Z,21Z)-
Description:
9,12,15,18,21-Tetracosapentaenoic acid, also known by its systematic name (9Z,12Z,15Z,18Z,21Z)-tetracosapentaenoic acid, is a long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid characterized by the presence of five double bonds in its carbon chain. This fatty acid is part of the omega-3 family, which is known for its beneficial effects on human health, particularly in cardiovascular and neurological functions. The structure of this compound includes a 24-carbon backbone, with double bonds located at the 9th, 12th, 15th, 18th, and 21st positions, all in the cis configuration, which contributes to its fluidity and reactivity. Tetracosapentaenoic acid is typically found in certain marine oils and algae, making it a subject of interest in nutritional studies and dietary supplements. Its properties include being a liquid at room temperature, and it is soluble in organic solvents. The compound's potential health benefits are attributed to its role in reducing inflammation and supporting heart health, making it a valuable component in functional foods and nutraceuticals.
