:11-Octadecenoic acid, ethyl ester, (E)-
Description:
11-Octadecenoic acid, ethyl ester, (E)-, also known as ethyl 11-octadecenoate, is an unsaturated fatty acid ester characterized by its long hydrocarbon chain and a double bond in the trans configuration at the 11th carbon position. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a mild, fatty odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The presence of the double bond contributes to its reactivity, making it susceptible to oxidation and polymerization under certain conditions. Ethyl 11-octadecenoate is often utilized in the food industry as a flavoring agent and in the production of biodiesel due to its fatty acid composition. Additionally, it may find applications in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries, where it can serve as an emollient or a precursor for the synthesis of other chemical compounds. Its safety profile generally indicates low toxicity, but standard handling precautions should be observed.
