About the compound: | Methyl oleate is a fatty acid methyl ester formed by the formal condensation of the carboxyl group of oleic acid with methanol. It is functionally related to oleic acid. Methyl oleate, originating from oleic acid, is a monounsaturated fatty ester playing a crucial role in biodiesel production. Its attributes of renewability and biodegradability have made it a focal point of numerous research endeavors aimed at promoting sustainable and eco-friendly chemical methodologies. Recent studies have delved into activating methyl oleate and other vegetable oils for broader industrial use, highlighting the importance of adopting green chemical processes. A notable application of methyl oleate involves its modification with maleic anhydride to improve oil water dispersion capabilities, eliminating the necessity for external surfactants. This method capitalizes on the natural advantages of vegetable oils, like their biodegradable nature and renewability, positioning them as prime candidates for raw materials in chemical productions[1]. Additionally, the oxidative behavior of methyl oleate, in its pure form and when mixed with solketal, has been examined to assess its stability and aging patterns within biodiesel. Such studies are pivotal for enhancing biodiesel's durability by mitigating the oxidation process using antioxidants. Research indicates that incorporating substances such as tert-butylhydroquinone (TBHQ) and solketal can prevent the formation of oligomers, thereby improving the stability and efficacy of biodiesel fuels[2].
