Summary
-
1.
Methyl eleostearate has been thermally cyclized in good yields, and a concentrate of the cyclic product has been prepared.
-
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.
The significance of cyclic fatty acids in industrial processes is discussed.
