1-(undecyldisulfanyl)undecane

Description:

1-(Undecyldisulfanyl)undecane, with the CAS number 79458-27-8, is an organosulfur compound characterized by a long hydrocarbon chain and a disulfide functional group. This compound features a linear undecane backbone, which consists of 11 carbon atoms, and a disulfanyl group (-S-S-) that connects two undecyl chains. The presence of sulfur in the structure imparts unique properties, such as increased reactivity and potential for forming various derivatives. Typically, compounds like this exhibit low volatility and may have limited solubility in water, while being more soluble in organic solvents due to their hydrophobic nature. The disulfide bond can also contribute to the compound's stability and influence its behavior in chemical reactions, particularly in redox processes. Additionally, such compounds may find applications in materials science, biochemistry, and as intermediates in organic synthesis, owing to their distinctive structural features and functional properties.
