N-Cyclohexanecarbonylpentadecylamine Cayman Chemical Item Number 10007739 Description Numerous analogs of fatty acyl ethanolamides potentiate the intrinsic biological activity of endocannabinoids.1↗ This potentiation is ascribed either to inhibition of AEA reuptake into neurons, or inhibition of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) within the neurons. 2↗ However, Ueda has recently cloned another amidase, the acidic palmitoyl ethanolamidase (PEAase) that promotes the hydrolysis of palmitoylethanolamide.3↗ N-Cyclohexanecarbonylpentadecylamine is a selective inhibitor of acidic PEAase, inhibiting the enzyme with an IC50 of 4.5 µM, while failing to inhibit FAAH even at 100 µM.4↗ Formal Name N-pentadecyl-cyclohexanecarboxamide CAS Number 702638-84-4 Molecular Formula C22H43NO Formula Weight 337.6 Formulation A crystalline solid Purity ≥98% Stability 2 years Storage -20°C Shipping Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere SMILES CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCNC(=O)C1CCCCC1 InCHI Code 1S/C22H43NO/c1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13-17-20-23-22(24)21-18-15-14-16-19-21/h21H,2-20H2,1H3,(H,23,24) InCHI Key VMFXYTSKMWPHQH-UHFFFAOYSA-N |
