:trans-11-eicosenoic acid methyl ester
Description:
Trans-11-eicosenoic acid methyl ester, also known as methyl trans-11-eicosenoate, is a long-chain fatty acid methyl ester characterized by its unsaturated structure. It features a trans double bond located at the 11th carbon of the eicosenoic acid chain, which consists of 20 carbon atoms. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The presence of the trans double bond influences its physical properties, such as melting and boiling points, as well as its reactivity compared to its cis counterparts. Trans-11-eicosenoic acid methyl ester is of interest in various fields, including biochemistry and materials science, due to its potential applications in biodiesel production, as a lubricant, and in the synthesis of other chemical compounds. Additionally, its fatty acid profile may contribute to nutritional studies and the development of functional food products.
