- CAS No.: 141-22-0
- Formula:C18H34O3
- Molecular Weight:298.46
IUPAC Name: (R,Z)-12-hydroxyoctadec-9-enoic acid
InChIKey: WBHHMMIMDMUBKC-QJWNTBNXSA-N
SMILES: OC(CCCCCCC/C=C\C[C@H](O)CCCCCC)=O
Biological Activity: Ricinoleic acid (purity≥99%), a hydroxy fatty acid, is an attractive feedstock for the production of high-performance lubricants, cosmetics, polymers, surfactants, and coatings. Ricinoleic acid is the main active ingredient of Castor oil (HY-107799). Ricinoleic acid is the agonist for prostaglandin EP3 receptor (EP3 receptor) (EC50 in MEG-01 is 0.5 μM), that causes laxative effects and uterine contraction. Ricinoleic acid exhibits antianxiety-like, anti-inflammatory and pro-inflammatory properties[1][2][3][4][5].
