描述
Oct-trans-2-en-1-ol is a member of the class of compounds known as fatty alcohols. Fatty alcohols are aliphatic alcohols consisting of a chain of a least six carbon atoms. Thus, oct-trans-2-en-1-ol is considered to be a fatty alcohol lipid molecule. Oct-trans-2-en-1-ol is slightly soluble (in water) and an extremely weak acidic compound (based on its pKa). Oct-trans-2-en-1-ol can be found in corn, oat, and watermelon, which makes oct-trans-2-en-1-ol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
