Meadowfoam fatty acids (83% monoenoic fatty acid), reacted with 0.01-0.1 mole equivalents of perchloric acid, gave 33-71% yield of estolide, an oligomeric 2° ester, resulting from self condensation. Equimolar amounts of perchloric acid to fatty acid failed to produce estolide but converted the fatty acids to a mixture of lactones, mainly γ-eicosanolactone. Temperature plays a critical role; higher temperatures (75-100°C), at the same acid concentration, provide lactones while lower temperatures (20-65°C) yield estolides. Lower acid levels (<0.1 mole equivalents) gave the best yields (approx.70%) at 65°C. The estolide and monomer were characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance, infrared high-pressure liquid chromatography, gas chromatography, gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. The estolide is a mixture of oligomers with an average distribution near 1.65 ester units. The ester linkages are located mainly at the original double bond positions but have some positional isomerization to adjacent sites in accord with carbocation migration along the alkyl chain. The residual double bond of the estolide was extensively isomerized from cis to trans and positionally along the chain. The distilled monomer is similar in structure to the unsaturated portion of the estolide with geometrical and positional double bond isomerization. In addition, a significant amount of cyclization of the fatty acids to lactone (approx.30%) had occurred.
