TLDR
A combination of gas-liquid chromatography (GLC) and oxidative cleavage on fractions isolated by mercury derivative chromatography has shown the presence of previously unreported minor component fatty acids in olive, soybean, cottonseed, corn, peanut, rapeseed and safflower oil as discussed by the authors.
Abstract
A combination of gas-liquid chromatography (GLC) and oxidative cleavage on fractions isolated by mercury derivative chromatography has shown the presence of previously unreported minor component fatty acids in olive, soybean, cottonseed, corn, peanut, rapeseed and safflower oil. All of the oils examined contain small amt of saturated acids above arachidic, some as high as hexacosanoic acid.Cis-11-octadecenoic acid was found in amt ranging from 0.5~2.0%.Cis-11-eicosenoic acid is present in the 0.04~1.4% range (rapeseed oil excluded). The tetracosenoic acid present in rapeseed (0.4%) and safflower oil (0.1%) has been identified as thecis-15-tetracosenoic acid. No unusual polyenoic species were detected with the exception of those in rapeseed oil, which contains 0.6% of both 11,14-eicosadienoic and 13,16-docosadienoic acid.

Separations of lipids by silver ion chromatography.

TL;DR: The possibility of separating lipid materials on the basis of the number, type, and position of the unsaturated centers they contain, by virtue of the complexing of these unsaturated bonds with silver ions, provides a relatively recent but now very important addition to the range of separatory methods available to lipid chemists and biochemists.

Search for new industrial oils. V. Oils of cruciferae

TL;DR: In this article, seeds from 37 species of plants in the family Cruciferae were analyzed for oil and protein, and the fatty acid composition of the oils was determined by gas-liquid chromatography.

Isomerization during hydrogenation. I. Oleic acid

TL;DR: In this article, it was found that during the hydrogenation of octadecenoic acids, migration of the double bonds takes place equally in each direction, and the positional isomers that are formed are composed of the 1∶2 equilibrium mixture ofcis andtrans.

Occurrence of Cyclo -Propene Acids in Some Plants of the Order Malvales

F. S. Shenstone, +1 more
- 01 Apr 1961 - 
TL;DR: Sterculic and malvalic acids are the only fatty acids known to contain a cyclo-propene ring in their structures and the occurrence of both acids in the seeds of Sterculia foetida and two species of Malvaceae is reported.
