6-Decenoic acid

Description:

6-Decenoic acid is a long-chain unsaturated fatty acid characterized by a carbon chain of ten atoms with a double bond located at the sixth carbon from the carboxylic acid end. Its molecular formula is C10H18O2, and it features a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) that imparts acidic properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic fatty odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic carbon chain. 6-Decenoic acid is known for its applications in the synthesis of various esters and as an intermediate in the production of surfactants, lubricants, and other chemical products. Additionally, it may exhibit antimicrobial properties, making it of interest in food preservation and other applications. As with many unsaturated fatty acids, it can undergo oxidation and polymerization reactions, which are important considerations in its handling and storage.
