Abstract
The four major hydroperoxides derived from autoxidation or lipoxygenase action on linoleic acid or on methyl linoleate and their corresponding alcohol derivatives are resolved by high-performance liquid chromatography on Zorbax SIL 3 micron particulate columns irrigated with hexane-diethyl ether-acetic acid mixtures. The four major linoleic acid hydroperoxides are interconverted at different rates in benzene or carbon tetrachloride solutions but are stable to storage under nitrogen at -70 degrees C for several months.
