Identification of novel decenoic acids in heated butter.
Novel decenoic acids such as (E)-4-decenoic acid and (E)- and (Z)-5-,6-decenoic acid were detected as minor components in heated butter using GC and GC/MS. The formation mechanism of these novel decenoic acids is discussed on the basis of the result of the reaction of delta-decalactone with active clay in a model experiment.
