In general, the hydroxyl group makes alcohols polar. Those groups can form hydrogen bonds to one another and to most other compounds. 24034-73-9, formula is C20H34O, Owing to the presence of the polar OH alcohols are more water-soluble than simple hydrocarbons. Methanol, ethanol, and propanol are miscible in water. Butanol, with a four-carbon chain, is moderately soluble. Application In Synthesis of 24034-73-9
Fujii, Shinya;Miura, Takahiro;Oikawa, Tsuyoshi;Qin, Xian-Yang;Kojima, Soichi;Kagechika, Hiroyuki research published 《 Design, synthesis and antitumor activity of phthalazine-1,4-dione-based menaquinone analogs》, the research content is summarized as follows. New chemotherapeutics are needed to treat hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and menaquinones, homologs of vitamin K consisting of a 1,4-naphthoquinone core and a (poly)isoprene chain, are potential candidates. In this study, we designed and synthesized a series of phthalazine-1,4-dione-based menaquinone analogs such as I. Among them, compounds bearing the intact isoprene chain exhibited selective antiproliferative activity towards HCC cell line JHH7, as compared with normal hepatocytes. The geranyl derivative I showed submicromolar potency, and might be a promising lead compound for anticancer agents.
Application In Synthesis of 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.
