In general, the hydroxyl group makes alcohols polar. 24034-73-9, formula is C20H34O, Because of hydrogen bonding, alcohols tend to have higher boiling points than comparable hydrocarbons and ethers. Name: (2E,6E,10E)-3,7,11,15-Tetramethylhexadeca-2,6,10,14-tetraen-1-ol
Di Serio, Maria Gabriella;Giansante, Lucia;Del Re, Paolo;Pollastri, Luciano;Panni, Filippo;Valli, Enrico;Di Giacinto, Luciana research published 《 Characterization of Olivastro di Bucchianico cv extra virgin olive oils and its recognition by HS-GC-IMS》, the research content is summarized as follows. Single cultivar Olivastro di Bucchianico extra virgin olive oil is obtained from olives cultivated in a narrow area of the Abruzzo region, Italy. This cultivar is mostly present in the municipality of Bucchianico and in some neighboring municipalities in the province of Chieti. There is very little research in the literature describing the morphol. and chem. characteristics of this cultivar. A morphol. characterization of the plant and the fruit was carried out. In addition, we characterized the chem., phys.-chem. and sensory properties of the extra virgin olive oil. The following analyses were conducted: free acidity, peroxide value, UV spectrophotometric indexes, contents in fatty acid Et esters, waxes, tocopherols, fatty acids, triglycerides, sterols, alcs., phenolic substances, volatile compounds and sensory profile. The anal. of the volatile compounds was performed using a headspace-gas chromatog.-ion mobility spectrometry (HS-GC-IMS) instrument connected to a nitrogen generator for carrier/drift gas production The results of the chem. analyses showed good levels of nutraceutical components in the oils, which were found to be organoleptically well balanced with medium values of fruity, bitter and pungent. The HS-GC-IMS method based on the anal. of 15 volatile mols. might be a useful tool for a chemometric discrimination of the varietal origin for the oils under investigation. 2021 Society of Chem.

24034-73-9, Geranylgeraniol is a diterpenoid that is hexadeca-2,6,10,14-tetraene substituted by methyl groups at positions 3, 7, 11 and 15 and a hydroxy group at position 1. It has a role as a plant metabolite, a volatile oil component and an antileishmanial agent. It is a diterpenoid and a polyprenol.
Geranylgeraniol, a precursor to geranylgeranylpyrophosphate, is an intermediate in the mevalonate pathway. Geranylgeraniol has been shown to prevent bone re-absorption, inhibition of osteoclast formation, and kinase activation in vitro. When working with statins, Geranylgeraniol can reduce the toxicity without inhibiting the cholesterol-producing effects. Geranylgeraniol has been documented to counteract the effects of fluvastatin by inhibiting activation of caspase-1 and production of IL-1. Additionally Geranylgeraniol has been found to induce apoptosis in HL-60 cells.
