:heneicosanoyl chloride
Description:
Heneicosanoyl chloride, also known as heneicosanoyl chloride or heneicosanoyl chloride, is an acyl chloride derived from heneicosanoic acid, which is a long-chain fatty acid. It has the chemical formula C21H41ClO and is characterized by the presence of a long hydrophobic carbon chain, making it a fatty acyl chloride. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and has a pungent odor, characteristic of acyl chlorides. Heneicosanoyl chloride is reactive, particularly with water, leading to the formation of heneicosanoic acid and hydrochloric acid upon hydrolysis. It is commonly used in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of esters, amides, and other derivatives of fatty acids. Due to its reactivity, it requires careful handling and storage under inert conditions to prevent moisture exposure. Additionally, it is important to note that heneicosanoyl chloride should be handled with appropriate safety precautions, as it can be corrosive and irritating to the skin and respiratory system.
