Methyl arachidate Usage And Synthesis
Description
Arachidic acid methyl ester (Methyl arachidate) is an esterified form of arachidic acid. It is a natural compound and a leukotriene A4 hydrolase (LTA4H) inhibitor. It is a minor constituent of biodiesel generated from acid-catalyzed or subcritical water-subcritical methanol (SCW-SCM) in situ transesterification of dry activated sludge or sludge oil, respectively.
Chemical Properties
It is a wax-like solid which is soluble in alcohol and ether and insoluble in water.
Uses
Methyl arachidate is used in specialized synthesis and as an intermediate for pure arachidic acid. It serves as a reference standard in gas chromatography and medical research.
Definition
ChEBI: Methyl arachidate is a fatty acid methyl ester that derived from arachidic acid.
