10-Hydroxydecanoic acid Usage And Synthesis

Uses

Reactant involved in: • ;Synthesis of copolymers of acrylamide and sodium acryloyloxydecanoate1• ;Macrolactonization for preparation of Sansalvamide A2• ;Studies of chain length selectivity for cutinase catalyzed polycondensation reactions3• ;Ruthenium-catalyzed esterification followed by macrocyclization4• ;Synthesis of anhydrides and esters5

Uses

10-Hydroxydecanoic acid is suitable for use in a study on Novozym 435-catalyzed condensation polymerization of cis-9,10-epoxy-18-hydroxyoctadecanoic acid and its comparison with corresponding polymerization of 10-hydroxydecanoic acid.

Definition

ChEBI: A 10-carbon, omega-hydroxy fatty acid, shown to be the preferred hydroxylation product (together with the 9-OH isomer) of capric acid in biosystems, and used as a standard in lipid assays; reported to have cytotoxic effects.

General Description

10-Hydroxydecanoic acid (10-HDA) is a saturated fatty acid of hydroxy-trans-2-decenoic acid (10H2DA). Its molecule has two functional groups (-OH and -COOH). It has been reported to prevent the lipopolysaccharide-induced NO production in murine macrophages. 10-HDA has been extracted from royal jelly obtained from honeybees (Apis mellifera) and exhibits estrogenic action. Its polymerization with the polyethylene glycol-modified lipase in a transparent benzene solution has been reported to proceed by the formation of ester linkage.
