Hexadecanoic-7,7,8,8-d4acid

Description:
Hexadecanoic-7,7,8,8-d4 acid, also known as deuterated palmitic acid, is a saturated fatty acid characterized by a long hydrocarbon chain consisting of 16 carbon atoms. The "d4" designation indicates that four hydrogen atoms in the molecule are replaced with deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen, which alters its mass and can be useful in various analytical applications, particularly in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. This compound is typically a white, waxy solid at room temperature and is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. Hexadecanoic acid is naturally occurring in various animal and plant fats and oils, serving as an important component in lipid metabolism. The deuterated form is often utilized in research settings, including studies of metabolic pathways and the behavior of lipids in biological systems. Its unique isotopic labeling allows for precise tracking and analysis in biochemical experiments.
