Erucic Acid CAS 112-86-7
Erucic Acid is a colorless needle shaped crystal. Melting point 33.5 ℃, boiling point 381.5 ℃ (decomposition), 358 ℃ (53.3kPa), 265 ℃ (2.0kPa), relative density 0.86 (55 ℃), refractive index 1.4534 (4 Chemicalbook 5 ℃). Highly soluble in ether, soluble in ethanol and methanol, insoluble in water. The rapeseed oil or mustard oil produced from rapeseed, as well as the seeds of several other cruciferous plants, contain a high amount of erucic acid. Some marine animal fats, such as cod liver oil, also contain erucic acid.
