Soybean phosphatides

  • Published:
Oil & Soap

Summary

The fractionation of the hot ethyl alcohol extract of the oil-free soybean meal yielded: (a) nonprotein nitrogenous compounds containing no phosphorus; (b) monoamino-diphosphorus compounds; (c) diamino-monophosphorus compounds; (d) monoamino-monophosphorus compounds containing only half as much nitrogen and phosphorus as lecithin and cephalin.

These monamino-monophosphorus compounds, which are insoluble in acetone, were fractionated into: (a) a compound insoluble in cold ethyl alcohol, about 50% of which is probably cephalin; (b) a compound soluble in cold ethyl alcohol, which seems to be a lecithin-betaside appears to consist of a monosaccharide in combination with a dibasic dihydroxy acid.

It is suggested that the use of cadmium chloride in the separation of vegetable lecithin may result in the formation of a cadmium chloride salt of lecithin rather than an addition compound as formerly believed.
