Isolation of a pure isomer of linoleic acid hydroperoxide

  • Published:

Abstract

A mixture of positional isomers of linoleic acid hydroperoxide was produced from the oxidation of linoleic acid by lipoxygenase from corn or soybean. Chromatography on a column of silicic acid separated 13-hydroperoxy-11,9-octadecadienoic acid in 99+% purity from the mixture obtained by soybean lipoxygenase oxidation of linoleic acid. Attempts at isolation of pure 9-hydroperoxy-10,12-octadecadienoic acid from hydroperoxides obtained by corn lipoxygenase oxygenation of linoleic acid were partially successful with isolation of the 9-hydroperoxide in 97% purity.
