Chemical Structure
Hexadecanal
Synonym(s): Palmitaldehyde
- CAS No.: 629-80-1
- Formula:C16H32O
- Molecular Weight:240.42
IUPAC Name: palmitaldehyde
InChIKey: NIOYUNMRJMEDGI-UHFFFAOYSA-N
SMILES: CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC=O
Biological Activity: Hexadecanal (Palmitaldehyde) , a volatile long-chain aliphatic aldehyde, is emitted from human feces, skin, and breath. The receptor for hexadecanal(OR37B) is highly conserved across mammals. Hexadecanal may exert its effects by modulating functional connectivity between the brain substrates of social appraisal and the brain substrates of aggressive execution. Also, Hexadecanal is confirmed to be highly deterrent to the ant Lasius niger. Hexadecanal is promising for the research of startle responses and aggression[1][2][3]

Hexadecanal (Standard) | ≥98% | Hexadecanal (Standard) is an analytical standard for Hexadecanal. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Hexadecanal (Palmitaldehyde), a volatile, long-chain fatty aldehyde, is released from human feces, skin, and breath. The hexadecanal receptor (OR37B) is highly conserved in mammals. Hexadecanal may exert its effects by modulating functional connectivity between social evaluation brain substrates and aggression execution brain substrates. Hexadecanal has also been shown to have a strong deterrent effect on black ants. Hexadecanal has potential for use in startle response and aggression behavior | ||||||||||||||||||||
