The molecule is a nitroso compound that is N-undecylnitrous hydrazide carrying double bonds at positions 1,2,4, and 7. It is a long-chain fatty acyl CoA synthetase inhibitor and interferes with lipid metabolism by inhibiting the de novo synthesis of glycerolipids and cholesterol esters. It has a role as an EC 6.2.1.3 (long-chain-fatty-acid--CoA ligase) inhibitor, a vasodilator agent, an apoptosis inhibitor, a bacterial metabolite, an EC 3.1.1.64 (retinoid isomerohydrolase) inhibitor and an antimalarial. It is a nitroso compound, an olefinic compound and a hydrazone.
