methyl myristelaidate

Description:
Methyl myristelaidate is an ester derived from myristelaidic acid and methanol. It is characterized by its chemical structure, which includes a long hydrocarbon chain, making it a fatty acid methyl ester. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a mild odor. Methyl myristelaidate is known for its low viscosity and relatively high stability, which makes it suitable for various applications, including use as a lubricant, surfactant, or in cosmetic formulations. Its hydrophobic nature allows it to effectively interact with oils and fats, while its ester functional group provides some degree of polarity. Additionally, it is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. The compound is of interest in the fields of biochemistry and materials science, particularly for its potential use in biodiesel production and as a model compound for studying lipid behavior. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance.
