Chemical pathways of epoxidized and hydroxylated fatty acid methyl esters and triglycerides with phosphoric acid†
نویسندگان
چکیده
The polymerization pathways of epoxidized and hydroxylated triglycerides with phosphoric acid (H3PO4) were investigated using model reactions. Involved epoxides and diols were derived from oleic acid methyl ester, which was easily monitored by oneand two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques as well as electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy (ESI-MS). Phosphoric acid played two key functions: (a) as a Brønsted acid catalyst that activated the epoxide toward nucleophilic attack by the diol, thus generating ether (C–O–C) cross-linkages; and (b) as a reaction partner establishing phosphate ester linkages [(RO)2(O)P–O–C, R1⁄4 C or H]. In studies with O labeled diol, phosphate esters formed exclusively from H3PO4 and epoxide without incorporation of diol whereas diols acted as polymerization initiators in polyether formations.

Synthesis of neopentyl glycol and ethylene glycol esters by fatty acids in the presence of acidic ion exchange resin catalyst
A most effective and less energy demanding method of producing fatty esters, diol esters, by esterifying fatty acids, with neopentyl and ethylenglycol alcohols in the presence of an acidic ion exchange resin catalyst(polyestyrendivinylbenzensulfated) was investigated at elevated temperature. In this process an azeotroping agent, toluene, was used to facilitate continuous removal of water by dis...

For surveying the effects of almond genotype and growing location on oil percentage of oil seed content and fatty acid of almond, seeds of 6 almond cultivars: Ferragnes, Tuono, Azar, Sahand, Nonpareil ...
متن کاملTransesterification of epoxidized soybean oil to prepare epoxy methyl esters
Epoxidizedmethyl esters were prepared by the transesterification of epoxidized soybean oil (ESBO). The transesterification was complete in 10min at 50 ◦C without loss of the epoxide function. Epoxidized methyl esters represent a renewable substrate that is readily converted into surfactants, fuel additives, and other industrial products. The implementation of this reaction will increase the ava...
