8-METHYLNONANOIC ACID Usage And Synthesis

Description

Isodecanoic acid is produced by oxidizing the mixture of aldehydes obtained from tripropylene in the oxo process. It is used in drying agents, PVC stabilizers, and alkyd resins; the copper salt is a wood preservative. Isodecanoic acid may be replaced by versatic acid 10 or neodecanoic acid.

Chemical Properties

clear colorless to yellow liquid

Uses

Intermediate for metal salts, ester type lubricants, plasticizers.

Uses

Isocapric Acid, can be used for terminal chain branching in fatty alcohols and acids, which has shown to enhance the transdermal permeation. It can also be used for the synthesis of the novel bacterial fatty acid 16-methyl-8(Z)-heptadecenoic Acid.

Definition

Mixture of branched-chain acids, primarily trimethylheptanoic and dimethyloctanoic.
