Metabolite Identification
Common Name9-Decenoic acid
Description9-Decenoic acid, also known as caproleic acid or δ(9)-decenoate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as medium-chain fatty acids. These are fatty acids with an aliphatic tail that contains between 4 and 12 carbon atoms. 9-Decenoic acid is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral.
