## Abstract A molecular theory of phase transitions in fatty acid monolayers at the air/water interface is proposed based on rotational ordering of molecules about their longitudinal axes. The first order statistical mechanical lattice model of Bell, Mingins, and Taylor (BMT) which is an equilibriu

The methyl esters of some mono-unsaturated fatty acids have been methylthiolated by the iodine-catalysed addition of dimethyl disulfide across the double bond. The resulting derivatives are suitable for gas chromatography. The fragmentation of the derivatives on electron impact yields mass spectra w
The different types of isotherm and the phase transitions in the condensed state of evennumbered carbon C~,-C24 fatty acid monolayers, have been examined. It was concluded that any insoluble fatty acid would exhibit eight types of isotherm if it were possible to plot them over a very large range of
