  2. Oleic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oleic_acid

    Safflower and olive oil have one of the highest levels of oleic acid among dietary fats. Oleic acid is used as a component in many foods, in the form of its triglycerides. It is a component of the normal human diet, being a part of animal fats and vegetable oils. [3] Oleic acid as its sodium salt is a major component of soap as an emulsifying ...

  5. IUPAC nomenclature of chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IUPAC_nomenclature_of...

    The main structure of chemical names according to IUPAC nomenclature. IUPAC nomenclature is a set of recommendations for naming chemical compounds and for describing chemistry and biochemistry in general. The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) is the international authority on chemical nomenclature and terminology.

  6. Fatty acid - Wikipedia

    (9Z)-octadec-9-enoic acid: Systematic names (or IUPAC names) derive from the standard IUPAC Rules for the Nomenclature of Organic Chemistry, published in 1979, [13] along with a recommendation published specifically for lipids in 1977. [14] Carbon atom numbering begins from the carboxylic end of the molecule backbone.

  7. IUPAC nomenclature of organic chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IUPAC_nomenclature_of...

    The alkyl (R') group is named first. The R−C(=O)O part is then named as a separate word based on the carboxylic acid name, with the ending changed from "-oic acid" to "-oate" or "-carboxylate" For example, CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 COOCH 3 is methyl pentanoate, and (CH 3) 2 CHCH 2 CH 2 COOCH 2 CH 3 is ethyl 4-methylpentanoate.

  8. Polysorbate 80 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polysorbate_80

    In the nomenclature of polysorbates, the numeric designation following polysorbate refers to the lipophilic group, in this case, the oleic acid (see polysorbate for more detail). The full chemical names for polysorbate 80 are: Polyoxyethylene (80) sorbitan monooleate (x)-sorbitan mono-9-octadecenoate poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl)

    3 COOH, which is commonly called acetic acid and is also its recommended IUPAC name, but its formal, systematic IUPAC name is ethanoic acid. The IUPAC's rules for naming organic and inorganic compounds are contained in two publications, known as the Blue Book [1] [2] and the Red Book, [3] respectively.
