Chemical Information
FooDB Name1-Undecanol
Description1-Undecanol, 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, 1-undecanol is considered to be a fatty alcohol lipid molecule. 1-Undecanol is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral. 1-Undecanol is a colorless, water-insoluble liquid. It has a floral citrus like odor, and a fatty taste and is used as a flavoring ingredient in foods. 1-Undecanol can be found in fruits including apples and bananas. It is commonly produced by the reduction of 1-undecanal, the analogous aldehyde.
