Docosanoic acid Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

white to cream crystals or powder

Uses

Docosanoic acid is a long-chain fatty acid,it has the following purposes: Waxes, textiles, pharmaceuticals, emulsifiers, and personal care products, lubricants, esters, chemical synthesis, and specialties.

Description

Docosanoic acid is a straight-chain, C22, long-chain saturated fatty acid.  It has a role as a plant metabolite. It is a straight-chain saturated  fatty acid and a long-chain fatty acid. It is a conjugate acid of a behenate.

Flammability and Explosibility

Non flammable

Source

Docosanoic acid is present in some oils and oil-bearing plants, including rapeseed (canola) and peanut oil and skins. It is estimated that one ton of peanut skins contains 13 pounds (5.9 kg) of docosanoic acid.

Purification Methods

Crystallise the acid pKEst from ligroin. [Francis & Piper J Am Chem Soc 61 577 1939, Beilstein 2 IV 1290.]
