Abstract
The stability of unsaturated methyl esters of fatty acid adsorbed on silica gel and silicic acid was studied by gas liquid chromatographic estimation of disappearance relative to a saturated internal standard. Variables included silica-ester ratio, agitation, adsorbent particle size, and degree of unsaturation. Under the conditions of the experiment, destruction of substrate unsaturated ester at 80 C was more a function of time than of unsaturation or initial purity.
