Abstract

Paris of C n C(n+1)C n (i.e., C16C17C16 and C18C19C18) and C n C(n-1)C n triglycerides (C 16 C 15 C 16 and C 18 C 17 C 18 ) triglycerides,n even, were prepared to compare with C n C(n+2)C n and C n C(n-2)C n glycerides, respectively, in polymorphic behavior. It was found that C n C(n+1)C n compounds were β′ tending and C n C(n-1)C n compounds β tending in line with their all-even counterparts. The glyceride C11C13C11 is β′ stable, like C10C12C10 and C16C18C16, and seems closely related to them in physical behavior and diffraction characteristics.
