We. Neff et E. Selke, VOLATILE THERMAL-DECOMPOSITION COMPOUNDS FROM THE BIS-HYDROPEROXIDE AND TRIS-HYDROPEROXIDES OF AUTOXIDIZED TRILINOLEOYLGLYCEROL, Revue francaise des corps gras, 41(5-6), 1994, pp. 123-125
Volatile exidation products generated by thermal decomposition of tril
inoleoylglycerol bis- and tris-hydroperoxides were determined during a
n investigation into the mechanisms of formation of odor and flavor co
mpounds in deteriorated soybean oil. Bis- and tris-hydroperoxides gene
rated two and three times more total volatiles respectively than the m
ono-hydroperoxide. The bis and tris-hydroperoxides generated the same
volatiles but yielded less pentane and 2,4-decadienal and more hexanal
as major volatiles than the mono-hydroperoxide.
