Chemical Information
FooDB NameDodecan-1-al
DescriptionDodecanol, also known as dodecyl alcohol or lorol, is a member of the class of compounds known as fatty alcohols. Fatty alcohols are aliphatic alcohols consisting of a chain of a least six carbon atoms. Thus, dodecanol is considered to be a fatty alcohol lipid molecule. Dodecanol is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak acidic compound (based on its pKa). Dodecanol can be synthesized from dodecane. Dodecanol can also be synthesized into lauryl palmitoleate and dodecyl palmitate. Dodecanol can be found in a number of food items such as eggplant, cumin, oval-leaf huckleberry, and tinda, which makes dodecanol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Dodecanol can be found primarily in feces and saliva. Dodecanol exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans. Dodecanol (systematically named dodecan-1-ol) is an organic compound with the chemical formula CH3(CH2)10CH2OH (also written as C 12H 26O). It is tasteless, colourless solid with a floral smell. It is classified as a fatty alcohol .
