Oleic Acid → HCID 87302643, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

The deoxygenation kinetics of stearic acid and oleic acids in H2 are closely similar, as shown in FIG. 10, with complete FFA conversion occurring in approximately 30 minutes and providing essentially 100% yield of n-heptadecane. Specifically shown in FIG. 10 is the results of stearic and oleic acid decarboxylation reactions in 10% H2 and dodecane solvent at 300° C. over 5% Pd/C catalyst for different reaction times. Shown are oleic acid conversion (Δ), oleic acid heptadecane yield (□), stearic acid heptadecane yield (◯), and oleic acid result with ½ catalyst (⋄).
