The dissociation of dimers of c/í-9-octadecenoic acid into its monomeric species in its pure liquid was studied by near-infrared spectroscopic measurements over a temperature range of 8.6-84.4 C. An absorption band at 1445 nm, which is attributed to the free OH of the fatty acid molecules, appeared even at relatively low temperatures; its peak height increased with increasing temperature. This shows that the dissociation of the acid dimers occurs even at low temperatures andincreases with increasing temperature. The molar absorption coefficient at 1445 nm for the monomeric OH stretch mode in the carboxyl group was obtained through the absorbance measurements in carbon tetrachloride solution at very low concentrations. The molar absorption coefficient and the absorbance for the neat sample at various temperatures, T, give the temperature dependence of the degree of dissociation, a, for dimeric c/j-9-octadecenoicacid into monomers in the liquid state. The aT curve has two break points at 30 and 55 C. The break-point temperatures correspond to the transition temperatures in the liquid structures of cir-9-octadecenoic acid: 30 C corresponds to a quasi-smectic liquid crystal to a more disordered liquid crystal, and 55 C corresponds the disordered liquid crystal to isotropic liquid. 1 Namely, the transitions in the liquid state of c/s-9-octadecenoic acid are attributable to the presence of the monomeric molecules produced by the dissociation of the dimeric acid: The monomeric molecules existing as an impurity would initiate the transition in the pure liquid state consisting mainly of cií-9-octadecenoic acid dimers.
