Description

Colorless liquid; sweet odor. Soluble in oils and alcohol; insoluble in glycerol and water. Combustible. Undecanal has a sweetish, fatty odor with an orange and rose undertone. It has a characteristic flavor. This chemical tends to polymerize unless tightly sealed.ChEBI: A fatty aldehyde formally arising from reduction of the carboxylic acid group of undecanoic acid. It is a component of essential oils from citrus plants like Citrus reticulata.


Liquid|colourless to slightly yellow liquid/sweet, fatty, floral odour


Undecanal is a saturated fatty aldehyde formally arising from reduction of the carboxylic acid group of undecanoic acid. It is a component of essential oils from citrus plants like Citrus reticulata. It has a role as an antimycobacterial drug, a volatile oil component and a plant metabolite. It is a saturated fatty aldehyde, a n-alkanal and a medium-chain fatty aldehyde. It is a tautomer of an undec-1-en-1-ol.
