Pelargonic acid instance of straight chain fatty acids
Pelargonic acid, also called nonanoic acid, is an organic compound with structural formula CH3(CH2)7CO2H. It is a nine-carbon fatty acid.  Nonanoic acid is a colorless oily liquid with an unpleasant, rancid odor. It is nearly insoluble in water, but very soluble in organic solvents.  The esters and salts of pelargonic acid are called pelargonates or nonanoates.
The acid is named after the pelargonium plant, since oil from its leaves contains esters of the acid.
