| Abstract: | The effects of temperature and media on the fusion of ricinoleic and lesquerolic acid derivatives with concentrated aqueous alkali were examined. Improved yields ofω-hydroxy acids were obtained by use of excess 2-octanol. The effect of excess 2-octanol is discussed in relation to a recently proposed reaction mechanism. A laboratory of the W.
