Reactions of unsaturated fatty alcohols. I. Preparation and properties of some vinyl ethers

  • Published:
Journal of the American Oil Chemists Society

Summary

A number of vinyl ethers of C18 fatty alcohols have been prepared by reaction of the alcohol with acetylene at atmospheric pressure in the presence of a basic catalyst. Infrared spectroscopic data on long-chain fatty alcohols, their vinyl ethers, and related chemical derivatives have been obtained. Methods of analysis of long-chain vinyl ethers for vinyl group have been developed, namely, iodometric, hydroxylamine, and infrared methods.

Preliminary experiments on the polymerization of long-chain vinyl ethers with ionic catalysts were carried out.
