The chemistry of polymerized oils. II. Dehydro-polymers of methyl linoleate and methyl stearate

  • Published:
Journal of the American Oil Chemists Society

Summary

  1. a)

    Reaction of methyl linoleate with di-tert.-butyl peroxide yields tert.-butyl alcohol and dehydro-polymers of methyl linoleate as the main products.

  2. b)

    The dehydro-dimers and higher dehydro-polymers of methyl linoleate contain conjugated diene unsaturation, thus indicating the involvement of the pentadiene system −CH=CH−CH2−CH=CH− in the reaction.

  3. c)

    Methyl stearate yields dehydro-polymers on reaction with di-tert.-butyl peroxide, thus indicating that reaction can occur at points in the fatty acid chains not activated by the proximity of olefinic double bonds.
