Abstract: | Castor oil can be used in industry. The molecular species of triacylglycerols containing hydroxy fatty acids (FA) in castor oil have been identified. We report here the identification of twelve diacylglycerols (DAG) containing hydroxy FA in castor oil using positive ion electrospray ionization mass spectrometry of the lithium adducts. They were RR (diricinolein, R is ricinoleate), RL, RS, R‐diOH18:0, R‐diOH18:1, R‐diOH18:2, R‐triOH18:0, R‐triOH18:1, R‐triOH18:2, diOH18:0‐diOH18:1, diOH18:1‐diOH18:1 and diOH18:1‐diOH18:2. The MS2 fragment ions, M + Li ? FA]+ and FA + Li]+, from the lithium adducts of DAG containing hydroxy FA (one or two hydroxy FA), were used for the identification. The additional fragment ions from the neutral losses of FA lithium salts M + Li ? FALi]+ were used for the identification of eleven DAG containing two normal FA in a soybean oil bioconversion product. The MS2 fragment ions from the neutral losses of FA lithium salts M + Li ? FALi]+ were not detected from the DAG containing hydroxy FA. The DAG containing FA with more hydroxyl groups than the other FA on the same DAG molecule tended to have a prominent fragment ion FA + Li]+ and an undetectable fragment ion M + Li ? FA]+ while the FA was the more hydroxylated FA. Also the less hydroxylated FA of a DAG tended to have a prominent fragment ion M + Li ? FA]+ and an undetectable fragment ion FA + Li]+ while the FA was the less hydroxylated FA. |
