From Vegetable Oils to Polyurethanes: Synthetic Routes to Polyols and Main Industrial Products (2012, background): “The chemical route to yield these polyols is based on dimerization of fatty acids catalyzed by montmorillonite clay at 250°C ( Scheme 24 ), followed by reduction of carboxylic acid groups into alcohol functions 199 (reaction H, Table 1 ).”
Recent Progress in Synthesis of Fine and Specialty Chemicals from Wood and Other Biomass by Heterogeneous Catalytic Processes (2007, background): “Selective hydrogenation of linoleic acid to oleic acid is an industrially important reaction 268 , since oleic acid can serve as a starting material for synthesis of dicarboxylic acids and further on corresponding polymers 6 597 .”
