Procedure

Fatty acid chlorides of octanoic, decanoic, lauric, myristic, palmitic, stearic, oleic, elaidic, and linoleic acids were hydrolyzed at 25° C, in water and the amounts of unchanged acid chlorides determined after different periods of reaction.

Note

Stearic acid is widely used in oral pharmaceutical formulations. It is mainly used in oral formulations as a tablet lubricant although it may also be used as a binder (Kibbe, 2000). Stearic acid has been used for the controlled release as a dispersion medium of drugs in the form of microspheres made of fats and waxes.
