Equisetolic acid or triacontanedioic acid is a chemical compound with the chemical formula HOOC—(CH
2)
28—COOH.[1][2]
The compound is a long-chain dicarboxylic acid, one of the longest naturally occurring dicarboxylic acids. It has been found in the spores and cones of Equisetum arvense and Equisetum telmateia.[3][4][5]
Physical properties
Like other long-chain dicarboxylic acids, it demonstrates physical properties typical of fatty acids with extended carbon backbones, including high melting points[6] and limited water solubility.
