Synthesis of Ricinoleic Acid Derivatives With Hydrazide, Pyrazole, and Pyrazoline Fragments

Key Points

• The aim is to create ricinoleic acid derivatives incorporating hydrazide, pyrazole, and pyrazoline fragments.
• Started with castor oil as the primary source.
• Converted castor oil into methyl-()12-oxo-octadec-9-enoate.
• Carried out isomerization into methyl-()12-oxo-octadec-10-enoate.
• Interacted with hydrazine hydrate to form derivatives.
• Successfully synthesized three ricinoleic acid derivatives.
• Demonstrated the efficacy of the synthetic approach.
