Abstract
Oleic acid epoxid 1 is produced by reaction with 9S-hydroperoxy-10-cis -12-trans-otadecadienoic acid 2 (9S-linoleic acid hydroperoxid, 9S-LOO H) slowly at room temperature. 9S-LOOH is obtained in a slow reaction, if linoleic acid is kept at room temperature in the air. Thus oleic a cid of technical quality which contains always 10-30 % of linoleic aci d is transformed slowly even at room temperature (via oxidation of lin oleic acid to its hydroperoxide) into oleic acid epoxide.
