The usual chemical approach is to isolate a compound in pure form and then to determine its physical and chemical properties. About 15 years ago in the laboratory at St. Luke's Hospital Paul J. Hartsuch1attempted to prepare pure oleic acid from a mixture of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. Distillation under reduced pressure, chilling to minus 15 to minus 25° C. of the fatty acid mixture diluted with...Bibliography1.
