Tetradecyl 3-oxobutanoate

Description:
Tetradecyl 3-oxobutanoate, with the CAS number 70938-05-5, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group. It is derived from the reaction of tetradecanol, a long-chain fatty alcohol, and 3-oxobutanoic acid, which contributes to its structure. This compound typically exhibits hydrophobic properties due to its long hydrocarbon chain, making it less soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents. Tetradecyl 3-oxobutanoate may be used in various applications, including as an intermediate in organic synthesis, in the formulation of surfactants, or as a potential additive in cosmetic and personal care products due to its emollient properties. Its molecular structure suggests it may possess certain biological activities, although specific studies on its pharmacological effects may be limited. As with many chemical substances, handling should be done with care, following appropriate safety guidelines to mitigate any potential hazards associated with exposure.
