Metabolite Identification
Common NameHexadecane, 1,1-dimethoxy-
DescriptionHexadecane, 1,1-dimethoxy- belongs to the class of organic compounds known as acetals. Acetals are compounds having the structure R2C(OR')2 ( R' not Hydrogen) and thus diethers of geminal diols. Originally, the term was confined to derivatives of aldehydes (one R = H), but it now applies equally to derivatives of ketones (neither R = H ). Mixed acetals have different R' groups. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Hexadecane, 1,1-dimethoxy-. This compound has been identified in human blood as reported by (PMID: 31557052 ). Hexadecane, 1,1-dimethoxy- is not a naturally occurring metabolite and is only found in those individuals exposed to this compound or its derivatives. Technically Hexadecane, 1,1-dimethoxy- is part of the human exposome. The exposome can be defined as the collection of all the exposures of an individual in a lifetime and how those exposures relate to health. An individual's exposure begins before birth and includes insults from environmental and occupational sources.
