(Received 11 October 2005; accepted 14 October 2005; online 19 October 2005)

Elaidic acid, C18H34O2, has an essentially linear alkyl chain. The double bond is twisted across the mean direction of the alkyl chain in a skew′, trans, skew conformation. In the crystal structure, the mol­ecules form centrosymmetric O—H⋯O hydrogen-bonded dimers (O⋯O = 2.684 Å).

Comment

The physical, biological and nutritional properties of fatty acids are largely determined by the number, position and configuration of their double bonds. These determine the shape of the mol­ecules, the way mol­ecules can pack together in solid phases, monolayers, bilayers etc., and how individual mol­ecules can inter­act with enzymes and receptors. Most natural unsaturated fatty acids have cis (Z) double bonds. Trans (E) fatty acids are present in dairy fats and are produced during the catalytic partial hydrogenation used in the production of hardened fats and during deodorization of commodity oils. The labelling of foods with trans content is increasingly required due to their undesirable nutritional properties. Alternative ways of producing hardened fats, such as inter­esterification or blending with fully saturated fats, and milder deodorization procedures, are being developed to reduce trans content. Trans fatty acids more closely resemble saturated acids in melting point and nutritional properties, sharing an essentially linear structure which allows closely aligned packing in condensed phases. In contrast, cis double bonds introduce a bend in the alkyl chain, making packing less stable and lowering the melting point. We have determined the structure of elaidic acid (trans-9-octa­decenoic acid), (I)[link], to enable a detailed comparison of a trans fatty acid with saturated and cis-unsaturated compounds.

[Scheme 1]

Relatively few crystal structures of fatty acids are available, as good crystals are difficult to obtain, often being thin plates and often crystallizing in several polymorphs. Most monoenes have low melting points and polyenes are liquids at room temperature. The crystal structures of the following saturated and monoene C18 fatty acids have been reported to date: stearic acid (octa­deca­noic acid) (Malta et al., 1971[Malta, V., Celotti G., Zannetti, R. & Martelli, A. F. (1971). J. Chem. Soc. B, pp. 548-553.]; Kaneko et al., 1990[Kaneko, F., Kobayashi, M., Kitagawa, Y. & Matsuura, Y. (1990). Acta Cryst. C46, 1490-1492.], 1994a[Kaneko, F., Sakashita, H., Kobayashi, M., Kitagawa, Y., Matsuura, Y. & Suzuki, M. (1994a). Acta Cryst. C50, 245-247.],b[Kaneko, F., Sakashita, H., Kobayashi, M., Kitagawa, Y., Matsuura, Y. & Suzuki, M. (1994b). Acta Cryst. C50, 247-250.]), oleic acid (cis-9-octa­decenoic acid) (Abrahamsson & Ryderstedt-Nahringbauer, 1962[Abrahamsson, S. & Ryderstedt-Nahringbauer, I. (1962). Acta Cryst. 15, 1261-1268.]; Kaneko et al., 1997[Kaneko, F., Yamazaki, K., Kitagawa, K., Kikyo, T., Kobayashi, M., Kitagawa, Y., Matsuura, Y., Sato, K. & Suzuki, M. (1997). J. Phys. Chem. B, 101, 1803-1809.]) and petroselinic acid (cis-6-octa­decenoic acid) (Kaneko et al., 1992a[Kaneko, F., Kobayashi, M., Kitagawa, Y., Matsuura, Y., Sato, K. & Suzuki, M. (1992a). Acta Cryst. C48, 1054-1057.],b[Kaneko, F., Kobayashi, M., Kitagawa, Y., Matsuura, Y., Sato, K. & Suzuki, M. (1992b). Acta Cryst. C48, 1057-1060.]). No trans-octa­decenoic acid structure has been reported to date.

Elaidic acid (I)[link] has an essentially linear alkyl chain, with the torsion angle between saturated C atoms close to 180° (Table 1[link]). The C7—C8—C9—C10, C8—C9—C10—C11 and C9—C10—C11—C12 torsion angles are −118.8 (4), −179.9 (4) and 118.6 (4)°, respectively, resulting in the double bond being twisted across the mean direction of the alkyl chain in a skew′, trans, skew conformation. The C1–C18 distance is 21.393 (6) Å, comparable with that in fully extended stearic acid structures (21.6 Å; Malta et al., 1971[Malta, V., Celotti G., Zannetti, R. & Martelli, A. F. (1971). J. Chem. Soc. B, pp. 548-553.]; Kaneko et al., 1990[Kaneko, F., Kobayashi, M., Kitagawa, Y. & Matsuura, Y. (1990). Acta Cryst. C46, 1490-1492.], 1994b[Kaneko, F., Sakashita, H., Kobayashi, M., Kitagawa, Y., Matsuura, Y. & Suzuki, M. (1994b). Acta Cryst. C50, 247-250.]). This contrasts with the cis-octa­decenoic acids, where the mol­ecules are bent and the C1–C18 distance is reduced to between 17.8 and 19.7 Å (Abrahamsson & Ryderstedt-Nahringbauer, 1962[Abrahamsson, S. & Ryderstedt-Nahringbauer, I. (1962). Acta Cryst. 15, 1261-1268.]; Kaneko et al., 1997[Kaneko, F., Yamazaki, K., Kitagawa, K., Kikyo, T., Kobayashi, M., Kitagawa, Y., Matsuura, Y., Sato, K. & Suzuki, M. (1997). J. Phys. Chem. B, 101, 1803-1809.], 1992a[Kaneko, F., Kobayashi, M., Kitagawa, Y., Matsuura, Y., Sato, K. & Suzuki, M. (1992a). Acta Cryst. C48, 1054-1057.],b[Kaneko, F., Kobayashi, M., Kitagawa, Y., Matsuura, Y., Sato, K. & Suzuki, M. (1992b). Acta Cryst. C48, 1057-1060.]).

In the crystal structure of (I)[link], mol­ecules related by inversion centres are linked by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form R22(8) dimers (Bernstein et al., 1995[Bernstein, J., Davis, R. E., Shimoni, L. & Chang, N.-L. (1995). Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 34, 1555-1573.]) typical of carboxylic acids (Table 2[link]).

Experimental

A commercial sample of (I)[link] (Sigma, Poole, Dorset, UK) was re-crystallized from ethanol at room temperature. The crystals were composed of very thin stacked sheets which tended to be twisted. After many attempts, a crystal was found from which it was possible to obtain a data set.

H atoms were treated as riding, with C—H(aromatic) = 0.95 and C—H(CH2) = 0.99 Å, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C), CH(meth­yl) = 0.98 Å, with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C), and O—H = 0.87 Å, with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O). The O-bound H atom was allowed to ride at its position as determined from a difference map. Although the best crystal was selected from many crystallization attempts, the higher than usual values for R, wR and Rint may be a result of the crystal quality. The possibilty that the crystal was twinned was investigated but this did not give any significant results.
