Several methods have been described for localizing carbon double bond positions in long-chain bases, depending on the identification of their oxidation products. In the case of oxidation with MnOj/IO (Sweeley and Moscatelli, 1959 Sambasivarao and McCluer, 1964 Ramachandran et ah, 1968 Polito et al., 1968) or oxidative ozon-olysis (M rtensson, 1964) fatty acids are obtained. Treatment with OSO4 / 104 or reductive ozonolysis yield free aldehydes, which can be analyzed directly or as 1,3-dioxolane derivatives by gas-liquid chromatography (Panganamala et al., 1969 Venkata Rao et al., 1967).
