:5-Hexadecenal, (Z)-
Description:
5-Hexadecenal, (Z)- is an unsaturated aldehyde characterized by a long carbon chain with a double bond in the cis configuration. Its molecular formula is C16H30O, indicating it contains 16 carbon atoms, 30 hydrogen atoms, and one oxygen atom. The presence of the aldehyde functional group (-CHO) at one end of the carbon chain contributes to its reactivity and potential applications in organic synthesis and fragrance industries. The (Z) designation refers to the stereochemistry of the double bond, indicating that the highest priority substituents on either side of the double bond are on the same side, which can influence the compound's physical properties and reactivity. 5-Hexadecenal is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor, and it is soluble in organic solvents. Its applications may include use as a flavoring agent, fragrance component, or intermediate in the synthesis of other organic compounds. As with many aldehydes, it may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in various fields, including biochemistry and materials science.
