Elaidyl Alcohol

Elaidyl alcohol is a monounsaturated fatty alcohol produced by the hydrogenation of elaidic acid (Cay-90250). It is active against herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2) and bacteriophage ?6, but not Pseudoalteromonas phage PM2, virions in plaque assays (IC50s = 1.9, 0.4, and >75 µM, respectively). Elaidyl alcohol has been used in the formation of bimolecular films to study the effect of unsaturation on model lipid membranes.Formal Name: 9E-octadecen-1-ol. CAS Number: 506-42-3.
