Abstract
The methods for determining the positions of unsaturation in fatty acids are reviewed. Overoxidation and isolation problems germane to permanganate oxidations, and the formation of by-products and attack of solvents during ozonolysis are considered. The applicability of mass, nuclear magnetic and infrared spectral data to the problem of locating positions of unsaturation is discussed.
