WILFARIN MA-1499

CAS:    544-63-8
MF:    C14H28O2
MW:    228.37
EINECS:    208-875-2

Description    
WILFARIN MA-1499 is a common saturated fatty acid with the molecular formula CH3(CH2)12COOH. 
A myristate is a salt or ester of WILFARIN MA-1499.
WILFARIN MA-1499 is named after the nutmeg Myristica fragrans.
Nutmeg butter is 75 % trimyristin, the triglyceride of myristic acid. 
Besides nutmeg, WILFARIN MA-1499 is also found in palm kernel oil, coconut oil, butter fat and is a minor component of many other animal fats. 
WILFARIN MA-1499 is also found in spermaceti, the crystallized fraction of oil from the sperm whale.
WILFARIN MA-1499 is also commonly added co-translationally to the penultimate, nitrogen-terminus, glycine in receptor-associated kinases to confer the membrane localisation of the enzyme. 
The WILFARIN MA-1499 has a sufficiently high hydrophobicity to become incorporated into the fatty acyl core of the phospholipid bilayer of the plasma membrane of the eukaryotic cell. 
In this way, WILFARIN MA-1499 acts as a lipid anchor in biomembranes.
The ester isopropyl myristate is used in cosmetic and topical medicinal preparations where good absorption through the skin is desired.
Reduction of WILFARIN MA-1499 yields myristyl aldehyde and myristyl alcohol.
WILFARIN MA-1499 is used predominantly in beauty products as a fragrance ingredient, opacifying agent, surfactant, cleansing agent and emulsifier.

Chemical properties    
WILFARIN MA-1499 appears as white to yellowish white solid, sometimes appearing as shiny crystalline solid, or white to yellowish white powder. 
WILFARIN MA-1499 has a relative density of 0.8739 (80 ℃), melting point of 54.5 ℃ and the boiling point of 326.2 ℃. 
WILFARIN MA-1499's refractive index (nD60) is 1.4310. 
WILFARIN MA-1499 is not soluble in water but soluble in ethanol, ether and chloroform. 
WILFARIN MA-1499 contains about 70% to 80% while other kinds of coconut oil, palm kernel oil also contain it.

Application    
WILFARIN MA-1499 can be used as a chemical agent, also for the synthesis of spices and organic matter
WILFARIN MA-1499 can be used in the manufacture of emulsifiers, waterproofing agents, curing agents, PVC heat stabilizers and plasticizers, and also used as the raw materials of spices and pharmaceutical.
WILFARIN MA-1499 is mainly used as raw materials for the production of surfactants for the production of sorbitan fatty acid esters, glycerol fatty acid esters, ethylene glycol or propylene glycol fatty acid esters. 
WILFARIN MA-1499 can also be used for the production of isopropyl myristate and so on. 
WILFARIN MA-1499 can also be used for defoamers and flavoring agent.
According to the provision of China GB2760-89, WILFARIN MA-1499 can be used to prepare a variety of food spices.

Preparation    
To prepare the WILFARIN MA-1499, the methyl ester of the mixed fatty acids or mixed fatty acid methyl ester obtained from the coconut oil or palm kernel oil is subject to vacuum fractionation, obtaining myristic acid. 
For laboratory preparation, glycerol tris (tetradecanoate) is subject to saponification with 10% sodium hydroxide solution, further being acidified with hydrochloric acid to obtain the free WILFARIN MA-1499. 
WILFARIN MA-1499 can also be made from tetradecanol.
