Pentacosane can be found in a number of food items such as ginkgo nuts, papaya, black elderberry, and cardamom, which makes pentacosane a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. The term higher alkanes is sometimes used literally as "alkanes with a higher number of carbon atoms". One definition distinguishes the higher alkanes as the n-alkanes that are solid under natural conditions . n-Pentacosane, also known as CH3-[CH2]23-CH3, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alkanes. These are acyclic branched or unbranched hydrocarbons having the general formula CnH2n+2, and consist entirely of hydrogen atoms and saturated carbon atoms. n-pentacosane is a hydrocarbon lipid molecule that is very hydrophobic, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral. n-Pentacosane has been detected in coconuts, avocado, ginkgo nuts, cardamoms, and lindens. This could make n-pentacosane a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Pentacosane is one of the major components in the acetone extract from Curcuma raktakanda and is also in the essential oil from the leaves of Malus domestica. Pentacosane exhibit anti-cancer activities[1].

Pentatriacontane

n-Pentatriacontane

C35H72 (492.5634)


Pentatriacontane is a long-chain hydrocarbon containing 35 carbons. It belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alkanes. These are acyclic branched or unbranched hydrocarbons having the general formula CnH2n+2, and therefore consisting entirely of hydrogen atoms and saturated carbon atoms. Thus, pentatriacontane is considered to be a hydrocarbon lipid molecule. Pentatriacontane is a very hydrophobic molecule, totally insoluble in water, and completely neutral. Pentatriacontane exists as a waxy solid. It is a naturally occurring compound that is found in parsley, several plant essential oils and in Candelilla wax. Candelilla wax is a wax derived from the leaves of the small Candelilla shrub native to northern Mexico and the southwestern United States. The Candelilla shrub is a member of the Euphorbia plant genus, from the family Euphorbiaceae. Candelilla wax is used as a food additive and a glazing agent. It also used in cosmetic industry, as a component of lip balms and lotion bars. One of its major uses is as a binder for chewing gums. Candelilla wax can be used as a substitute for carnauba wax and beeswax. It is also used for making varnish. Pentatriacontane is a member of the class of compounds known as alkanes.
