Abstract

NEW MATERIAL:2-n-Dodecyl-3-hydroxy-n-hexadecanoic acid of formula I (OR is hydroxyl or alcohol residue) or its ester. EXAMPLE:anti-2-n-Dodecyl-3-hydroxy-n-hexadecanoic acid methyl ester. USE:An immunoactivator. A raw material for a bio-degradable surfactant having balanced lipophilic and hydrophilic properties. PREPARATION:The objective compound of formula I can be produced by adding sodium hydride to a tetradecanoic acid ester in xylene, subjecting to thermal condensation reaction, reducing the ketone group of the resultant 2-n-dodecyl-3- oxo-n-hexadecanoic acid ester of formula II and subjecting the obtained compound of formula III to hydrolysis and, as necessary, esterification.
