Abstract
Diesters of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are hydrogen or alkyl of from 1 to about 20 carbon atoms, and X and Y are alkyl, alkenyl or [dienyl] alkadienyl of from about 12 to about 18 carbon atoms, useful as low calorie synthetic oils suitable for consumption by mammals.
Claims8
[1. A diester of the formula ##STR4## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, which may be the same or different, are hydrogen or alkyl from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, with the proviso that at least one of the R groups, R.sub.1 or R.sub.2, is an alkyl of from 1 to 20 carbon atoms;
- X is an alkyl, alkenyl or dienyl radical from 12 to 18 carbon atoms, and Y is an alkenyl or dienyl radical of from 12 to 18
- carbon atoms.]
[2. A diester as claimed in claim 1, wherein one of R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 is hydrogen and the other is an alkyl of 16 carbon atoms.]
[3. A diester as claimed in claim 1, wherein both R.sub.1 and
- R.sub.2 are alkyl of 16 carbon atoms.] 4. A diester [as claimed in claim 1,] of the formula ##STR5## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, which may be the same or different, are hydrogen or alkyl of from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, with the proviso that at least one of the R groups, R.sub.1 or R.sub.2, is an alkyl of from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, wherein X and Y are both [alkenyl or dienyl radicals having from 12 to 18 carbon atoms] oleyl or linoleyl
- radicals . 5. The diester of claim 4 wherein one of the groups R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 is hydrogen and the other is an alkyl of 16 carbon atoms and both X and Y are [alkenyls of 18 carbon atoms] oleyl
- radicals . 6. A diester as claimed in claim [1] 4 , wherein both R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are alkyl of 16 carbon atoms and X and Y are both [alkenyl or dienyl radicals having from 12 to 18 carbon atoms] oleyl or linoleyl radicals .
- The diester of claim 6 wherein X and Y are [alkenyls of 18 carbon
- atoms] oleyl radicals . 8. The compound [hexadecyldioleylmalonate] dioleylhexadecylmalonate .
- The compound [dihexadecyl dioleylmalonate] dioleyl dihexadecylmalonate .
[10. A synthetic edible oil comprising one or more compounds of the formula ##STR6## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, which may be the same or different, are hydrogen or alkyl of from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, X is an alkyl, alkenyl or dienyl radical of from 12 to 20 carbon atoms, and Y is an alkenyl or
- dienyl radical from 12 to 20 carbon atoms.] 11. A synthetic edible oil comprising a mixture of [hexadecyl dioleylmalonate] dioleylhexadecylmalonate and [dihexadecyl dioleylmalonate] dioleyldihexadecylmalonate .
A synthetic edible oil comprising one or more compounds of the formula:
- ##STR7## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, which may be the same or different are hydrogen or alkyl of from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, and X and Y independently each are an alkenyl or alkadienyl radical having from 12 to
- 18 carbon atoms.
