Summary
The modified Rosenmund-Kuhnhenn procedure, as described by Benham and Klee, has been applied to conjugated systems. The only difference is that the 1-minute reaction time is extended to 30–120 minutes depending upon sample weight and excess reagent. Such a procedure gives true iodine numbers and has been investigated for various tung oils, oiticica oil, isomerized fatty acids, and dehydrated castor oil.
