Cyclization of eleostearic acid

  • Published:
Journal of the American Oil Chemists’ Society

Summary

  1. 1.

    Methyl eleostearate has been thermally cyclized in good yields, and a concentrate of the cyclic product has been prepared.

  2. 2.

    Using small amounts, a technique has been devised for a) aromatization of the resultant cyclohexadiene, b) oxidation to orthophthalic acid, and c) characterization of the acid as the anhydride and the imide.

  3. 3.

    The significance of cyclic fatty acids in industrial processes is discussed.

Zusammenfassung

  1. 1.

    Ringbildung von methyleleostearat auf thermischem wege ergab gute resultate, und ein konzentrat des ring-produktes wurde prepariert.

  2. 2.

    Eine neue technik fuer die benutzung von kleineren mengen ermoeglichte: a) aromatisation des entstandenen cyclohexadien, b) oxdierung zu orthophthalischer säure, und c) charakterisierung der säure ais anhydrin und imid.

  3. 3.

    Die bedeutung von fettsäure-ringen in industriellen verfahren wird besprochen.

Resumé

  1. 1.

    Le méthyleleostéarate a été cyclisé thermiquement avec bon rendement et un concentré du produit cyclique a été préparé.

  2. 2.

    Au moyen d'une nouvelle technique, utilisant des quantités minimes de matériel, il a été possible a) d'aromatiser les cyclohexadiènes obtenus, b) d'oxyder l'acid orthophthalique, et c) d'établir la constitution de l'acide comme anhydride ou imide.

  3. 3.

    L'importance pour l'industrie des acides gras cycliques est discutée.
