The chemical reactions and pathways involving monocarboxylic acids, any organic acid containing one carboxyl (COOH) group or anion (COO-). The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of fatty acids with a chain length of between 8 and 12 carbons. The chemical reactions and pathways involving fatty acids, aliphatic monocarboxylic acids liberated from naturally occurring fats and oils by hydrolysis. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of fatty acids with a chain length of between 8 and 12 carbons. The chemical reactions and pathways involving medium-chain fatty acids, aliphatic compounds having a terminal carboxyl group and with a chain length of C8-12. The chemical reactions and pathways involving lipids, as carried out by individual cells.
