10(E)-Pentadecenoic acid (CAS 321744-58-5)
QUICK LINKS
10(E)-Pentadecenoic acid is an unsaturated fatty acid which is of particular interest in lipid chemistry. Researchers study this compound to understand the physical and chemical properties that unsaturated chains impart to lipid membranes, including fluidity, permeability, and phase behavior. Its presence in certain natural products also makes it a target for investigations into the biosynthetic pathways of fatty acids, especially those involving elongation and desaturation enzymes. 10(E)-Pentadecenoic acid is explored for its potential as a bio-based raw material for the synthesis of surfactants, emulsifiers, and other oleochemicals. Moreover, its role in signaling and as a precursor to bioactive metabolites is a focus in studies related to plant defense mechanisms and inter-organism communication.
