CAS 89188-18-1
:5,9-Hexacosadienoic acid, 24-methyl-
Description:
5,9-Hexacosadienoic acid, 24-methyl- (CAS 89188-18-1) is a long-chain unsaturated fatty acid characterized by its unique structure, which includes a 24-carbon backbone and two double bonds located at the 5th and 9th carbon positions. This compound is part of the class of fatty acids known as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), which are essential for various biological functions. The presence of double bonds introduces kinks in the molecular structure, affecting its physical properties, such as melting point and solubility. Typically, unsaturated fatty acids like this one are liquid at room temperature. 5,9-Hexacosadienoic acid is likely to be found in certain plant oils and may play a role in cellular processes, including membrane fluidity and signaling pathways. Its methyl group at the 24th position can influence its biological activity and interactions with other molecules. As with many fatty acids, it may also have implications in nutrition and health, although specific studies on this compound may be limited.
