Decenoic acid

Description:
Decenoic acid, also known as 10-decenoic acid, is an unsaturated fatty acid characterized by a long hydrocarbon chain containing ten carbon atoms and a double bond located at the first carbon from the end of the chain. Its molecular formula is C10H18O2, and it features a carboxylic acid functional group, which imparts acidic properties. This compound is typically found in certain natural oils and fats, contributing to their flavor and aroma. Decenoic acid is 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. It exhibits properties typical of unsaturated fatty acids, such as the ability to undergo hydrogenation and oxidation reactions. Decenoic acid is of interest in various applications, including the production of surfactants, lubricants, and as a potential ingredient in cosmetics and food products. Its unique structure and reactivity make it a valuable compound in both industrial and research settings.
