CAS 90176-52-6

cis-10-pentadecenoic acid methyl ester

Description:

Cis-10-pentadecenoic acid methyl ester, with the CAS number 90176-52-6, is an unsaturated fatty acid methyl ester characterized by its long carbon chain and a cis double bond configuration. This compound typically features a 15-carbon backbone with a double bond located at the 10th carbon from the methyl end, which influences its physical and chemical properties. As a methyl ester, it is derived from the corresponding fatty acid through esterification, making it soluble in organic solvents and exhibiting lower solubility in water. The presence of the cis double bond contributes to its fluidity and reactivity, affecting its behavior in biological systems and potential applications in the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries. Additionally, this compound may exhibit specific melting and boiling points, density, and viscosity that are typical of fatty acid methyl esters. Its unique structure allows it to participate in various chemical reactions, including oxidation and polymerization, making it of interest in both research and industrial applications.
