## Abstract A solution of anhydrous ferric chloride in methanol (15% w/v) converts fatty acids into their methyl esters within 10 minutes under reflux. This reagent is comparable to methanolic hydrogen chloride in its performance and can be applied for both transesterification of lipids as well as
## Abstract A simple methodology for the determination of the fatty acid composition of edible oils through ^1^H NMR is proposed. The method is based on the fact that all fatty acid chains are esterified to a common moiety, glycerol, and the quantification is done directly in the ^1^H NMR spectra t
