Pyrolysis of Ethylene Glycol Fatty Acid Esters

Abstract
Four ethylene glycol di-fatty acid esters (A) and four ethylene glycol mono-fatty acid esters (B), prepared from ethylene glycol and butyric, caprylic, lauric and palmitic acid, were pyrolyzed at 200750°C in nitrogen atmosphere. The products of pyrolysis of the former (A) were fatty acids and fatty acid vinyl esters and a small amount of lower fatty acids and ketones, and those of the latter (B) were fatty acids and acetaldehyde and a small amount of fatty acid vinyl esters, lower fatty acids and ketones.
