Study on the Metabolism of 8-Heptadecene in Red Algae

Zhang, Min, et al. Journal of applied phycology, 2014, 26, 1181-1187.

This work studied the metabolic pathway of 8-heptadecene in red algae, and the key conclusions are as follows:
· In the primitive bangiophycidean red algae, Pyropia and Bangia, 8-heptadecene constitutes 30-50% of the volatile compounds, significantly more than in the green alga Ulva pertusa, the brown alga Sargassum thunbergii, or the florideophycidean red alga Gracilaria lemaneiformis.
· Research on 8-heptadecene metabolism in Pyropia demonstrated that its enzymatic system showed negligible catalytic activity on palmitic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, and arachidonic acid. However, the isolated enzymatic solution exhibited activity with eicosapentaenoic acid, yielding approximately four times more 8-heptadecene than with the other substrates and the control, indicating a specific catalytic role for eicosapentaenoic acid.
· Additionally, the enzymatic solution was significantly inhibited by NaN3 but remained unaffected by phenidone and phenanthroline, implying a structural relationship to heme proteins. Therefore, it is suggested that a consistent level of 8-heptadecene is maintained in the primitive red alga Pyropia, where it likely functions as a metabolite of eicosapentaenoic acid, potentially catalyzed by enzymes similar to heme lipoxygenases.

Synthesis of 8-Heptadecene via Decarboxylation of Oleic Acid

Gasanov, A. G., et al. Russian Journal of Applied Chemistry, 2014, 87, 214-216.

8-Heptadecene serves as a crucial component in both petrochemical sectors and various other industrial applications. This study utilized oleic acid extracted from biodegradable biomass as feedstock to investigate how synthetic and natural aluminosilicates along with nanosized titanium and magnesium oxide catalysts affect the production of 8-heptadecene.
The decarboxylation process of oleic acid operated in a flow system at a volumetric rate of 1.0 h within a temperature scope of 250-400 °C. The key conclusions are as follows:
· With natural and synthetic aluminosilicates as catalysts the two systems achieved limited performance in conversion and acid number management reaching peak conversions at 81.56% and 85.46%.
· Nano-sized MgO and TiO2 produced optimal results at 350 °C achieving oleic acid conversions of 99.1% and 99.2%, respectively while the acid number of the reaction products dropped to 1.5 mg KOH/g and 1.3 mg KOH/g respectively.
