| abstract |
This invention relates to a composition of isomeric saturated, monocarboxylic acids containing either 11, 12, 13, 14 or 15 carbon atoms having general formula (I), wherein R1 and R2 each are branched or linear alkyl groups, based on the weight of the isomeric saturated monocarboxylic acids, R3 is hydrogen in 1 to 25 %wt and a branched or linear alkyl group in 75 to 99 %wt, and wherein at least 80 %wt of the alkyl groups are linear alkyl groups, the preparation thereof, and the derivatives obtainable therefrom, in particular the vinylesters and glycidylesters. |
