Analysis of fat acid oxidation products by countercurrent distribution methods. III. Methyl linolenate

Volatile decomposition products of the oxidative polymers of ethyl linolenate

“…In order to follow the oxidation of the polymers and to insure trapping of the volatile products, a 3.701 832.0 closed oxidation system was devised ( Figure 1). The reaction tube A was placed in the constant temperature bath I.…”

“…The peroxide value was determined by the method outlined by Fugger et al (3). The peroxide value was determined by the method outlined by Fugger et al (3).…”

Detergency evaluation

“…Moreover recent studies have shown a marked difference in the course of linolenate oxidation compared to that of oleate or linoleate. Whereas monohydroperoxides of the latter two radicals are relatively stable, polymerization and scission occur immediately upon oxidation of linolenate (4,5).…”

Fat Rancidity, Recent Studies on Mechanism of Fat Oxidation in Its Relation to Rancidity

“…It seemed obvious at the time that the point of addition was at the double bond, with subsequent shifting of the bond to the 3, y position, the point of addition being a. From these data one could readily infer that autoxidation of oleic acid took place at the double bond, methods, Fugger et al (26) obtained data to support the view that monohydroperoxides are the first stable products in the reaction with gaseous oxygen and that the ethylenic bond is not attacked until a subsequent oxidation.…”
