<p>A mixture of monounsaturated alcohols with 14 to 24 linear carbons in the linear chain is represented by jojoba alcohol, which remains an oily liquid at moderate ambient temperature. Jojoba alcohol is prepared by chemical hydrogenolysis of jojoba oil using a metal hydride reducing agent. A similar mixture of long chain monounsaturated alcohols can be prepared by hydrogenolysis of sperm whale oil. Mixtures of long chain monounsaturated alcohols penetrate epidermal layers of the skin to the vascular cells underneath where herpes viral infection, pain and other disorders occur.</p> |
