1-Tetradecanol, or commonly myristyl alcohol (from Myristica fragrans – the nutmeg plant), is a straight-chain saturated fatty alcohol, with the molecular formula CH 3 (CH 2) 12 CH 2 OH. It is a white waxy solid that is practically insoluble in water, soluble in diethyl ether , and slightly soluble in ethanol .
1-Decanol is a straight chain fatty alcohol with ten carbon atoms and the molecular formula C 10 H 21 OH. It is a colorless to light yellow viscous liquid that is insoluble in water and has an aromatic odor. [3] The interfacial tension against water at 20 °C is 8.97 mN/m.
An example of a fatty alcohol. Fatty alcohols (or long-chain alcohols) are usually high-molecular-weight, straight-chain primary alcohols, but can also range from as few as 4–6 carbons to as many as 22–26, derived from natural fats and oils. The precise chain length varies with the source.
C12-C14 alcohol glycidyl ether (AGE) is an organic chemical in the glycidyl ether family. [2] It is a mixture of mainly 12 and 14 carbon chain alcohols, also called fatty alcohols that have been glycidated. It is an industrial chemical used as a surfactant but primarily for epoxy resin viscosity reduction. [3]
1-Pentadecanol is an organic chemical compound classified as an alcohol. At room temperature, it is a white, flaky solid. [1] It is a saturated long-chain fatty alcohol consisting of a pentadecane chain with a hydroxy group as substituent on one end. It is an achiral molecule (meaning that it has no mirror-image isomers). [5]
Heptadecan-1-ol or heptadecyl alcohol is a saturated fatty alcohol [4] [5] with the CAS number 1454-85-9. [2] References This page was last edited on 28 July 2024, at ...
It is a fatty alcohol. Many other isomers are also known generically as octanols. 1-Octanol is manufactured for the synthesis of esters for use in perfumes and flavorings. It has a pungent odor. Esters of octanol, such as octyl acetate, occur as components of essential oils. [3] It is used to evaluate the lipophilicity of pharmaceutical products.
Dodecanol / ˈ d oʊ ˈ d ɛ k ɑː n ɒ l /, or lauryl alcohol, is an organic compound produced industrially from palm kernel oil or coconut oil. It is a fatty alcohol . Sulfate esters of lauryl alcohol, especially sodium lauryl sulfate , are very widely used as surfactants .
