cis-11-Eicosenoic acid Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Description

Gondoic acid is a mono unsaturated omega-9 fatty acid found in a variety of plant oils and nuts. It is the main acid component of jojoba oil.

Uses

(11Z)-11-Eicosenoic Acid, is a monostaturated fatty acid. The combined C20:1 isomers constitute 70% of the total fatty acid pool in jojoba seed oil isolated from plants in the Arizona desert.

Definition

ChEBI: (11Z)-icos-11-enoic acid is an icosenoic acid having a cis- double bond at position 11. It has a role as a plant metabolite and a human metabolite. It is a conjugate acid of a gondoate.
