*A Radical derived from a by-product in soap manufacture (8) I know it's some form of alkaloid but what's it called please?

25A "Self-consciously fashionable" (6) *H*C*I (CHIC something?)

Thanks for any help.

[JUNKMAN]

Think 25a is Chichi

[BigMac]

25a is CHICHI

[ladyalex]

I think the first one is
GLYCEROL

[boleynground]

I said glycerol. but was corrected on here as they asked for the radical - GLYCERYL

[Escutcheon]

Many thanks for the speedy reply. I should have thought of Glyceryl - from trinitrate - used in agina and explosives!!!
It's also chichi. I couldn''t believe it but it's on Google.
If 1A is Seraph and 8A is Glyceryl with 11A being Ebor what is the final one of "Kitchem utensil through which soft food cen be pushed" (5) R*C*R?
