The methods for determining the positions of unsaturation in fatty acids are reviewed. Overoxidation and isolation problems germane to permanganate oxidations, and the formation of by‐products and attack of solvents during ozonolysis are considered. The applicability of mass, nuclear magnetic and infrared spectral data to the problem of locating positions of unsaturation is discussed.
