CAS 88262-56-0
:5-Pentadecenoic acid, 14-methyl-, (Z)-
Description:
5-Pentadecenoic acid, 14-methyl-, (Z)-, also known by its CAS number 88262-56-0, is a long-chain unsaturated fatty acid characterized by a 15-carbon backbone with a double bond located at the fifth carbon from the carboxylic acid end, and a methyl group at the 14th carbon. This compound exhibits the (Z) configuration, indicating that the hydrogen atoms adjacent to the double bond are on the same side, which influences its physical properties and reactivity. It is typically found in various natural sources, including certain plant oils and animal fats. The presence of the double bond contributes to its reactivity, making it susceptible to oxidation and other chemical transformations. As a fatty acid, it plays a role in biological processes and can be involved in the synthesis of lipids. Its unique structure may also impart specific characteristics such as fluidity and melting point, which are important in applications ranging from food science to biochemistry.
