Synthetic Fatty Acid Glycerides of Known Constitution.

Composition and Structural Characteristics of Glycerides in Relation to Classification and Environment.

“…No reference substances of the bromo derivatives reported have yet been synthesized to confirm the proposed structures and, in view of the uncertain solubilities of such derivatives (22), it would be unwarranted to expect such information to express quantitative relations. Daubert and King (59) have made an extensive study of the compounds reported in many of these investigations to determine the correlation of the isolated products with known reference structures.…”

“…It seems important to indicate that the determination of glyceride configurations is preferably based upon physical rather than chemical properties. For this reason, the extensive studies on the synthesis of glycerides of known configuration (59) and the studies of their physical properties,such as melting and transition points and crystal structures (46,53,(210)(211)(212), spectrographic absorption characteristics (69,220), heats of combustion and specific heats (51, 52), dielectric properties (26,194), and activation energies (267),-are the more valuable.…”

Advances In The Synthesis Of Glycerides Of Fatty Acids

“…The chemistry of synthetic glycerides of fatty acids was reviewed by Daubert and King (40) in 1941. The present review describes recent progress in this field and covers the period from 1940 to December, 1957.…”

“…Accounts of synthetic glycerides may be found in textbooks such as that of Hilditch (73) or Ralston (126) and from time to time in the section on lipides of the Annual Reviews of Biochemistry, but no review as comprehensive as that of Daubert and King (40), previously mentioned, seems to have appeared in recent years. The excellent survey by Verkade (144) of the synthesis of glycerides deals essentially with the work carried out in his laboratory.…”

Polyhydric Alcohol Esters of Fatty Acids. Their Preparation, Properties, and Uses.

“…While much work has been done, much information has been omitted, and there are many contradictory statements. Reviews thus far published have surveyed only part of the subject (124,223,382,400,452); this literature review is meant to fill the gap.…”
