Myristyl aldehyde, also known as tetradecanal, is a reduced form of myristic acid. It is naturally produced by bioluminescent bacteria of the Vibrio genus...

lipid anchor in biomembranes. Reduction of myristic acid yields myristyl aldehyde and myristyl alcohol. Myristic acid consumption raises low-density lipoprotein...

of oxidation reactions in organic chemistry that convert alcohols to aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, and esters where the carbon carries a higher...

It is a common transformation that is practiced in many ways. Ketones, aldehydes, carboxylic acids, esters, amides, and acid halides - some of the most...

It can be obtained by reduction of glucose, which changes the converted aldehyde group (−CHO) to a primary alcohol group (−CH2OH). Most sorbitol is made...

The reaction is catalyzed by cobalt or rhodium complexes. The resulting aldehydes are hydrogenated to the alcohols, which are then separated. In Reppe carbonylation...

It is commonly produced by the reduction of undecanal, the analogous aldehyde. 1-Undecanol is found naturally in many foods such as fruits (including...
