On methylation of unsaturated acids using boron trihalide–methanol reagents
Methanolysis of unsaturated fatty acids and triglycerides was carried out with boron trihalide–methanol reagents of various ages. Boron trichloride–methanol produced esters apparently free from contaminants; boron trifluoride caused some loss of highly unsaturated esters after 90 min at 100 or 120°C...
