3-Hydroxytetradecanedioic acid

Description:
3-Hydroxytetradecanedioic acid, with the CAS number 73179-89-2, is a dicarboxylic acid characterized by the presence of two carboxyl (-COOH) groups and a hydroxyl (-OH) group on a tetradecane backbone, which consists of 14 carbon atoms. This compound is typically a white crystalline solid at room temperature and is soluble in polar solvents due to its functional groups. The hydroxyl group contributes to its potential as a polyol, while the dicarboxylic acid structure allows for various chemical reactions, including esterification and amidation. It is often studied for its potential applications in biochemistry and materials science, particularly in the synthesis of biodegradable polymers and surfactants. The presence of both hydroxyl and carboxylic acid groups enhances its reactivity and makes it a versatile intermediate in organic synthesis. Additionally, its long carbon chain may impart unique properties relevant to its behavior in biological systems and industrial applications.
