Unbranched chains

Short-chain unbranched primary alcohols M—(H20 + CH3) from hydroxy steroids... [Pg.321]

Sex attractants of many other Lepidopterans (butterflies and moths) were shown to have rather primitive structures, such as long-chain unbranched primary alcohols (12-16 carbon atoms) containing one or more double bonds. Other insects have elaborated quite different kinds of chemicals for the same purposes, e.g. 13-15. ... [Pg.8]

Polyesters containing long-chain unbranched glycols have the highest impact strength. This property also increases with the increase in the chain length of aliphatic acids. [Pg.187]

Appearance a hard, odorless, white wax consisting of a mixture of mostly long-chain, unbranched, saturated hydrocarbons along with a small amount of branched hydrocarbons. [Pg.504]

Fatty acids are long-chain, unbranched carboxylic acids (Sections 17.13 and 26.1). Most naturally occurring fatty acids contain an even number of carbons because they are synthesized from acetate, which has two carbon atoms. [Pg.827]

A long-chained unbranched normal paraffin (n-hexacontane and an alkylaroma-... [Pg.404]

Use line notation todraw a nine-carbon straight-chain (unbranched) alkane. [Pg.91]

Fatty acids from natural sources are long-chain unbranched carboxylic acids that contain an even number of carbon atoms. Outline the steps to convert the readily available dodecanoic acid (lauric acid) into the rare tridecanoic acid... [Pg.694]
