1-Eicosanol Usage And Synthesis
Chemical Properties
white fluffy crystalline powder
Uses
arachidyl alcohol is an emollient and a thickener. It is often incorporated into cosmetics to prevent moisture loss and improve skin smoothness.
Uses
1-Eicosanol has been used:
- in gradient HPLC-charged aerosol detection method for the detection of different lipids
- as internal standard during determination of policosanol′s high molecular weight alcohols (policosanol′s fatty alcohols) in fish oil by GC
Definition
ChEBI: A fatty alcohol consisting of a hydroxy function at C-1 of an unbranched saturated chain of 20 carbon atoms.
General Description
The polymorphism of 1-eicosanol has been studied by X-ray powder diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Raman scattering and IR spectroscopy.
Flammability and Explosibility
Not classified
Purification Methods
Crystallise the C20 alcohol from *benzene or *benzene/pet ether. [Beilstein 1 IV 1900.]
