Application
Tridecanoic acid is an off-white or white crystalline solid with a waxy, woody aroma. It plays a versatile role due to its presence as a metabolite in the aging mouse brain and its applications in various fields. In organic synthesis, it is instrumental in creating compounds such as testosterone tridecanoate. Additionally, tridecanoic acid is employed in wastewater treatment, where it acts as a glycol ester to reduce organic molecules like caproic acid and alkanoic acid. Chemically, it is a 13-carbon straight-chain saturated fatty acid, prevalent in certain dairy products and plants such as nutmeg, muskmelon, black elderberry, and coconut. It serves as a crucial internal standard for lipid analysis in broilers and chinook salmon roe, and is used as a reference in gas chromatography for measuring fatty acids in meat samples.
