Identification
Common Name3-DECANOL
ClassSmall Molecule
Description(±)-3-decanol, also known as ethyl heptyl carbinol or fema 3605, 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, (±)-3-decanol is considered to be a fatty alcohol lipid molecule (±)-3-decanol is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak acidic compound (based on its pKa). (±)-3-decanol is a fatty, floral, and mushroom tasting compound found in spearmint, which makes (±)-3-decanol a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product.
