A ball-and-stick depiction of a long-chain primary alcohol showing a 16‑carbon backbone terminating in an OH (hydroxyl group), with gray carbon atoms, a red oxygen, and a white hydrogen. This organic molecule (IUPAC: hexadecan‑1‑ol, molecular formula C16H34O) is a fatty alcohol categorized within lipid chemistry and biochemistry. At the molecular hierarchy level, it represents a small biomolecule contributing to lipid systems. Functionally, its amphiphilic structure enables emollient, thickening, and nonionic surfactant properties in emulsions and serves as a precursor for wax ester synthesis.
