18-Oxooctadecanoic acid

Fatty Acid

18-Oxooctadecanoic acid is a long-chain fatty acid derivative that serves as a substrate for P450BM-3, leading to the oxidative transformation into the corresponding α,ω-dicarboxylic acid, 1,18-octadecanedioic acid. This compound does not undergo decarboxylation, preventing the formation of one-carbon-shortened olefins. It is valuable for investigating the metabolic pathways associated with aldehyde-containing long-chain fatty acids, facilitating research into fatty acid metabolism and its implications in various biological processes.
