C8-C10 Fatty Alcohol
Fatty Alcohols are colorless waxy solids, although impure samples may appear yellow. Fatty alcohols usually have an even number of carbon atoms and a single alcohol group (-OH) attached to the terminal carbon. Most fatty alcohols in nature are found as waxes which are esters with fatty acids and fatty alcohols.
