Abstract
Low temperature fractional crystallization from acetone has been applied to the separation of methyl hydroperoxido oleate in 85 to 90 percent purity from partially oxidized methyl oleate. The hydroperoxido ester was subjected to hydrogenation, oxidative fission, and reduction with hydrogen iodide. Certain characteristics of the original hydroperoxide and its reaction products have been described. The results obtained lend definite support to the view that the first oxidation product of methyl oleate is a mixture of 8- and 11-hydroperoxido octadecenoic acids, at least under the conditions employed,i.e., oxidation under the influence of ultraviolet light or reaction temperatures up to 60° C.
