eng The monitoring of transformation of esters to epoxides as valuable biomolecules The course of epoxidation will be determined by two chromatographic methods (gas with mass spectrometry detector and high-pressure liquid with refractometric detector) and the results will be compared mutually and with the results of other methods. During epoxidation, many intermediates (various steps of epoxidation) are formed, which will be identified and their dependency on time will be determined. Moreover, various esters with different composition of higher fatty acids will be used, i.e., with different amount of double bonds. The detailed knowledge of reaction course will allow to control better the epoxidation process and so reduce the reaction cost and raw material consumption. Therefore, the process will be more environmentally friendly. epoxidation; monitoring of reaction; epoxides; gas chromatography
