LIGNOCERIC ACID Chemical Properties,Uses,Production

Description

Lignoceric acid is a 24-carbon saturated (24:0) fatty acid. In mammals, it is synthesized during brain development and is found in cerebrosides. The deficient peroxisomal oxidation of very-long-chain fatty acids, including lignoceric acid, contributes to certain syndromes, including Zellweger cerebro-hepato-renal syndrome and X chromosome-linked adrenoleukodystrophy. Lignoceric acid is also a by-product of lignin production.

Chemical Properties

white shiny crystalline powder or flakes

Uses

Tetracosanoic Acid is a chemical component of a dried mushroom powder exhibiting antioxidant properties. It is a long chain fatty acid present in peanut oil.

Definition

ChEBI: A C24 straight-chain saturated fatty acid.

Purification Methods

Crystallise the acid from acetic acid, Me2CO, toluene, pet ether/Me2CO or*C6H6/Me2CO. [Beilstein 2 IV 1301.]
