Abstract

The following products are formed during partial reduction of α-eleostearic acid with hydrazine:cis,trans-9,11-octadecadienoic andtrans,trans-11,13-octadecadienoic acids;cis-9-,trans-11- andtrans-13-octadecenoic acids; and stearic acid. The double bonds are reduced individually in the conjugated triene and also in the conjugated dienes that are formed. However, the reduction is selective since thetrans-11 double bonds in the conjugated triene is reduced only slightly to yield the isolated 9,13-diene.

Thetrans double bond of thecis,trans conjugated diene reduces at a faster rate than thecis bond. No differences were observed in the rate of reduction of thecis-9 andtrans-13 bonds in the triene or of the bonds in thetrans,trans conjugated diene.
