:cis-8-eicosenoic acid methyl ester
Description:
Cis-8-eicosenoic acid methyl ester, also known as methyl cis-8-eicosenoate, is a fatty acid methyl ester derived from eicosenoic acid, which is a long-chain monounsaturated fatty acid. This compound features a cis double bond located at the eighth carbon from the methyl end of the fatty acid chain, contributing to its unique structural properties. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. The presence of the double bond imparts certain reactivity, making it susceptible to oxidation and other chemical transformations. This methyl ester is of interest in various applications, including biodiesel production, as it can serve as a renewable energy source. Additionally, it may be utilized in the synthesis of surfactants, lubricants, and other chemical intermediates. Its physical and chemical properties, such as boiling point and density, can vary based on the specific conditions and purity of the sample.
