Decanoic Anhydride (TCI C0020, CAS 2082-76-0) is a long-chain fatty acid anhydride used as an acylating reagent in organic synthesis. It introduces a decanoyl group onto alcohols and amines, making it valuable for preparing esters, amides, and lipophilic derivatives. Available in 25 g and 100 g packs, it fits both method development and routine synthetic work. As an acid anhydride, it is moisture sensitive and should be kept tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from bases and oxidising agents.
