Basic Information

Product Description

Product Name：Undecenoic acid   

CAS No: 112-38-9

Form: liquid

Product Application

Pharmaceuticals & Personal Care (Core Application):

Antifungal/Antimicrobial Agent:​ Its zinc salt​ and other salts​ are classic topical antifungal drugs​ used to treat skin fungal infections like athlete's foot, ringworm, and tinea capitis. Also used in formulating antidandruff shampoos, medicated soaps, and talcum powder. Its monoglyceride​ is also an effective antimicrobial agent.

Pharmaceutical Intermediate:​ A key precursor for synthesizing musks​ (e.g., musk ketone), prostaglandins, certain antibiotics, and antiviral drugs.

Fragrance Industry:

Key Intermediate for Synthetic Fragrances:​ The core starting material​ for synthesizing macrocyclic musks​ (e.g., Musk T, Musk D) and fruity ester fragrances​ like γ-undecalactone​ (peach aldehyde). Its terminal double bond allows the construction of macrocyclic rings via specific cyclization reactions.

Polymers & Materials Science:

Monomer & Modifier:​ Can be copolymerized​ with other monomers (e.g., acrylates, styrene) to produce specialty resins, coatings, adhesives, and lubricant additives, introducing a long alkyl chain to improve flexibility and hydrophobicity.

Nylon Synthesis Intermediate:​ Can be converted to undecanedioic acid​ via oxidation, hydrogenation, etc., for synthesizing high-performance long-chain nylons.

Storage

Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed. Nitrogen padding is recommended to reduce oxidation.Away from heat, ignition sources, oxidizers, and strong bases. Due to the double bond, monitor for oxidation and polymerization during long-term storage.
