Chemical Formula: CH₃(CH₂)₁₀OH
Molar Mass: 172.31 g/mol

Undecyl Alcohol, also known by its IUPAC name 1-undecanol or undecan-1-ol, is a fatty alcohol. 
Undecyl Alcohol is a colorless, water-insoluble liquid of melting point 19 °C and boiling point 243 °C.

Undecyl Alcohol, also known as 1-Undecyl Alcohol, is a fatty alcohol which can be found in foods like fruits, eggs, and cooked pork. 
Ungraded products supplied by TCI America are generally suitable for common industrial uses or for research purposes but typically are not suitable for human consumption or therapeutic use.

Undecyl Alcohol, also known as N-undecyl alcohol or undecan-1-ol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as fatty alcohols. 
These are aliphatic alcohols consisting of a chain of a least six carbon atoms. 

Thus, Undecyl Alcohol is considered to be a fatty alcohol lipid molecule. 
Undecyl Alcohol is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral. 

Undecyl Alcohol is a colorless, water-insoluble liquid. 
Undecyl Alcohol has a floral citrus like odor, and a fatty taste and is used as a flavoring ingredient in foods. 

Undecyl Alcohol can be found in fruits including apples and bananas. 
Undecyl Alcohol is commonly produced by the reduction of 1-undecanal, the analogous aldehyde.

Undecyl Alcohol, being an organic chemical with molecular formula C11H24O and scented with lemon, is a colorless or pale yellow , water insoluble but alcohol and ether soluble liquid. 
Undecyl Alcohol is prepared from metal sodium reduction of Ethyl undecanoate, or pressurization and catalytic hydrogenation of ethyl ω- undecanoate , or even obtained by the Grignard reaction of nonyl magnesium bromide and with ethylene oxide. 

The application of Undecyl Alcohol is limited. 
Undecyl Alcohol is only used for some typical aroma oil and fragrance as the fat is solid at low temperature. 

The citrus rose type and the like only play a secondary and harmonious role and are taken as deodorant. 
In addition, Undecyl Alcohol is also used to manufacture spices with the scent of acacia, polianthes tuberosa and the like.

Applications of Undecyl Alcohol:
Undecyl Alcohol can be used as a precursor in the synthesis of undecanal by chemoselective oxidation using a fluorous derivative of TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl) radical as a catalyst.
Undecyl Alcohol can be also used as a solvent in homogeneous liquid-liquid microextraction method.

Uses of Undecyl Alcohol:
Although this Undecyl Alcohol is among the common varieties, but Undecyl Alcohol is still not widely used. 
Undecyl Alcohol is often used together with undecylenic aldenyde or other fat and aldehydes as the integrator of fragrant volatile of aldehyde. 

Also Undecyl Alcohol can be well integrated with floral fragrance, citrus cologne, acacia, robinia pseudoacacia, tuberose, violets, clean and grass smell, usually used for rose base. 
Few application is also available in such pineapple, orange, lemon, lime, orange , cassis, rose food flavors.

Industrial uses and production of Undecyl Alcohol: 
Undecyl Alcohol has a floral citrus like odor, and a fatty taste and is used as a flavoring ingredient in foods. 
Undecyl Alcohol is commonly produced by the reduction of undecanal, the analogous aldehyde.

Natural occurrence of Undecyl Alcohol: 
Undecyl Alcohol is found naturally in many foods such as fruits (including apples and bananas), butter, eggs and cooked pork.

Physical Description of Undecyl Alcohol:    
Undecyl Alcohol appears as a water-white liquid with a mild odor. 
Flash point of Undecyl Alcohol is 250 °F. 

Undecyl Alcohol is slightly soluble in water. 
Undecyl Alcohol is considered a marine pollutant by DOT. 

Immediate steps should be taken to limit Undecyl Alcohols spread to the environment. 
As a liquid Undecyl Alcohol can easily penetrate the soil and contaminate groundwater or streams. 
Undecyl Alcohol is mildly irritating to both the eyes and skin.

Chemical Properties of Undecyl Alcohol:
Undecyl Alcohol is colorless liquid at room temperature.
Scented with light sweet fat wax mixed with the scent of roses and fruity flavor of citrus, pineapple and the like. 
But generally the whole body smells scent of rose, as if a little bit of rue flavor. 

Undecyl Alcohol will smell like orange after highly diluted with the soft sweet flavor of citrus fruit oil. 
Undecyl Alcohols concentration is less than 20 × 10-6 with fruity and sweet scent. 
Unpleasant fat and smell will be produced when the concentration is higher.

Melting point :15 ~ 19 ℃.
Flash point> 82 ℃.
Density: D4250 .828 ~ 0.834.
Refractive index: nD200.4370 ~ 1.4430.
Water insoluble, soluble in most organic solvents, 1: 4.soluble in 60% ethanol.

Preparation of Undecyl Alcohol:
Undecyl Alcohol is prepared from undecaethylene reduction. 
Put 200 ml of anhydrous toluene and 70 g of sodium into a 5-liter three-necked flask, and then heat reflux Undecyl Alcohol until sodium is completely melted. 

Then stop heating, stir quickly to get the sodium to disperse into sand until the temperature drops to 60 ~ C. 
Then put 107 grams of ethyl undecanoate into 150ml absolute ethanol solution followed by adding 500ml of absolute ethanol. 

When the reaction is weakened, heat Undecyl Alcohol in an oil bath until the sodium is completely dissolved. 
Next remove the ethanol and toluene through the method of steam distillation. 

Then wash the remaining oily substances with 200ml × 3 hot water. 
Then wash ether layer with a sequence of water, sodium carbonate and then water after the ethyl ether was extracted. 

Also dry with magnesium sulfate, boil off the ethyl ether. 
The product will be finally extracted from the residue after reduced pressure distillation.

Storage of Undecyl Alcohol:
Undecyl Alcohol be sealed and stored in a cool dry place. 
Undecyl Alcohol also be kept away from fire.

Toxicity of Undecyl Alcohol: 
Undecyl Alcohol can irritate the skin, eyes and lungs. 
Ingestion of Undecyl Alcohol can be harmful, with the approximate toxicity of ethanol.

Safety Profile of Undecyl Alcohol:
Moderately toxic by ingestion. 
A skin irritant. 
Combustible liquid. 
Mutation data reported. 
When heated to decomposition Undecyl Alcohol emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.
