1-Tridecanol (Tridecanol) is anorganic compound with the formulaCH3(CH2)11CH2OH. It is a colorless oily solid that is classified as a primaryalcohol.
Like related long chain alcohols, tridecanol is sometimes classified as afatty alcohol because they were once obtained by hydrogenation of fats.[2] Most fatty alcohols, however, have even numbers of carbons. 1-Tridecanol can be obtained by hydrogenation oftridecanal. 1-Tridecanol is used as alubricant and for the manufacture ofsurfactants andplasticizers.
