β¦ Synopsis
Unsaturated fatty acids such as oleic acid are 1,2-dialkyl substituted alkenes, which can be functionalized by free radical addition to the C,Cdouble bond. We have been able to add enolizable compounds, e. g. acetone, acetic acid and malonic acid to methyl oleate mediated by manga- nese(II1)acetate. Azide radicals, generated by manganese(II1)acetate-oxidation of sodium azide, have also been added to methyl oleate. Perfluoralkyl iodides have been added via perfluoroalkyl radicals to methyl 10-undecenoate and methyl oleate to form the corresponding addition products. Reduction of the iodides by tributyltin hydride and saponification leads to interesting partially fluorinated fatty acids.

We are presenting our results on the alkylaluminium halide catalyzed ene addition of formaldehyde to readily available unsaturated fatty compounds to give primary homoallylic alcohols. The reaction of oleic acid and 10-undecenoic acid with formaldehyde gives (E)-S(lO)-(hydroxyrneth~ yI)octadec-l0(8)
