Chemical Structure

Methyl 18-fluorooctadecanoate CAS 463-29-6 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, Methyl 18-fluorooctadecanoate (C19H37FO2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 1.0, corresponding to approximately 1 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 316.49 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
