In the presence of oxygen, the fatty acids will undergo oxidation.
Once inside the mitochondrial matrix, fatty acids undergo β-oxidation.
The resulting o-benzoylbenzoic acid then undergoes cyclization, forming anthraquinone.
Boswellic acid is also undergoing an early-stage clinical trial at the Cleveland Clinic.
Oleic acid undergoes the reactions of carboxylic acids and alkenes.
Acetic acid can also undergo a dismutation reaction to produce methane and carbon dioxide:
Oxalic acid undergoes many of the reactions characteristic of other carboxylic acids.
Acetic acid undergoes the typical chemical reactions of a carboxylic acid.
Strong acids also undergo hydrolysis.
Hyodeoxycholic acid undergoes glucuronidation in human liver and kidneys.
