Product Information

• Name: Decanoyl chloride
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Decanoyl chloride is a fatty acid derivative that acts as a surfactant and detergent. It is used in the formulation of detergent compositions, such as pluronic f127, which are used for the production of antireflux agents, wetting agents, and solubilizers. Decanoyl chloride is also used in the manufacture of glycol esters and acylation reactions. The molecular weight of decanoyl chloride is between 138-144 g/mol. The chemical formula for decanoyl chloride is C10H20O2. Decanoyl chloride has an acid dissociation constant (pKa) of 10.5 at 25°C. The infrared spectrum shows bands at 1626 cm-1 and 1602 cm-1 due to stretching vibrations of the alkanoic acid moiety or C=O bond. Decanoyl chloride has a redox potential of +0.76 V vs Ag/AgCl at
