Metabolite Identification
Common Name9,10-Epoxyoctadecanoic acid
Description9,10-Epoxyoctadecanoic acid (CAS: 3233-92-9), also known as 9,10-epoxystearate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as linoleic acids and derivatives. These are derivatives of linoleic acid. Linoleic acid is a polyunsaturated omega-6 18 carbon long fatty acid, with two CC double bonds at the 9- and 12-positions. 9,10-Epoxyoctadecanoic acid is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. 9,10-Epoxyoctadecanoic acid is an epoxy fatty acid. Epoxy fatty acids bear an oxirane ring that shares a CC-bond with the aliphatic chain. The cis-9,10-epoxyoctadecanoic acid has been found in liver microsomes and is believed to originate from CYP-catalyzed epoxidation of oleic acid.
