Methyl (S)-3-hydroxytetradecanoate

Description:
Methyl (S)-3-hydroxytetradecanoate, with the CAS number 76835-67-1, is an ester derived from the fatty acid tetradecanoic acid (myristic acid) and methanol. This compound features a hydroxyl group (-OH) at the third carbon of the tetradecanoic acid chain, which contributes to its classification as a hydroxy fatty acid ester. It is characterized by its long hydrophobic carbon chain, which typically imparts lipid-like properties, making it soluble in organic solvents but less soluble in water. The presence of the hydroxyl group enhances its potential for hydrogen bonding, influencing its physical properties such as boiling point and melting point. Methyl (S)-3-hydroxytetradecanoate may exhibit biological activity, potentially serving as a precursor in the synthesis of various bioactive compounds or as an intermediate in organic synthesis. Its chirality, indicated by the (S) configuration, suggests that it may have specific interactions in biological systems, which could be relevant in fields such as pharmacology and biochemistry.
