4,7,10,12,16,19-Docosahexaenoicacid, 14-hydroxy-, (4Z,7Z,10Z,12E,16Z,19Z)-

Description:

4,7,10,12,16,19-Docosahexaenoic acid, 14-hydroxy-, (4Z,7Z,10Z,12E,16Z,19Z)-, commonly referred to as a hydroxy derivative of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), is a polyunsaturated fatty acid characterized by its long carbon chain and multiple double bonds. This compound features a hydroxyl group at the 14th carbon position, which influences its chemical reactivity and biological activity. DHA is known for its essential role in human health, particularly in brain and eye development, and is a key component of phospholipids in cell membranes. The presence of the hydroxyl group can enhance its solubility in polar solvents and may affect its interaction with biological systems. This fatty acid is typically found in marine oils and is associated with various health benefits, including anti-inflammatory properties and cardiovascular health support. Its structure, with multiple cis double bonds, contributes to its fluidity and functionality in biological membranes. The CAS number 87042-40-8 uniquely identifies this specific compound in chemical databases.
