26、fore acetylation Determine the ester value before acetylation in accordance with the method given inIS 709. 8.3 Acetylation Mix approximately 10 ml of the test sample (8.1), 10 ml of the acetic anhydride (5.2.1) and 2 g of the anhydrous sodium acetate (5.2.2) in the acetylation flask (6.1). Add frag
27、ments of pumice stone or porcelain and fit the reflux condenser to the flask. Heat the flask by means of the heating device (6.5) and maintain the liquid at moderate boiling for 2 h or for the time given in the International Standard for the essential oil being analysed. At the end of this period, a
28、llow the liquid to cool. Add 50 ml of distilled water and heat on the water bath (6.4), set at between 40 “C and 50 OC, for 15 min, shaking frequently. Allow to cool to room temperature, remove the reflux tube and transfer the liquid to the separating funnel (6.6). Wash the flask twice with 10 ml of
29、 water and collect the washing in the separating funnel. Wait until separation of the phase is complete, then draw off and reject the aqueous phase. Wash the oil by shaking successively with a) 50 ml of the sodium chloride solution (5.2.3), b) 50 ml of the sodium carbonate/sodium chloride solution (
30、5.2.4), c) 50 ml of the sodium chloride solution (5.2.3), and d) 20ml of water. If the washing have been properly conducted, they will be neutral to the litmus paper (5.2.6). Run the oil phase into a dry tube and shake several times over 15 min with at least 3 g of the magnesium or sodium sulfate (5
31、.2.5). Filter. Repeat the contact and shaking with further 3 g portions of magnesium or sodium sulfate until the acetylated oil is free of water. 8.4 Determination of ester value after acetylation Determine the ester value of the acetylated oil (8.3), in accordance with the requirements of IS0 709,
32、by using approximately 2 g, weighed to the nearest 0,05 g, of the acetylated oil and 50 ml of the potassium hydroxide solution (5.1.2). 4 0 0SI IS0 1241:1996(E) 9 EXPRESSION OF RESULTS 9.1 The ester value after acetylation is given by the formula: E2 =?j?(“() -“f,) 9.2 The free alcohols content, exp
33、ressed as a percentage by mass with respect to a given alcohol, is given by the formula: NOTE: This formula takes into account the increase in mass of the test portion during acetylation. 9.3 The combined alcohols content, expressed as a percentage by mass, with respect to a given alcohol, is given
34、by the formula: M, XEl 561 9.4 The total alcohols content, expressed as a percentage by mass with respect to a given alcohol, is obtained by adding the two percentages obtained in 9.2 and 9.3. In the above formulae: m is the mass, in grams, of the test sample of the acetylated oil; V, is the volume,
35、 in millilitres, of the hydrochloric acid solution (5.1.3) used for the blank test; VI is the volume, in millilitres, of the hydrochloric acid solution (5.1.3) used for the determination of the ester value after acetylation ; M, is the relative molecular mass of the alcohol used to express results c
