Partition behavior of the antioxidants BHT and BHA has been investigated between n ‐heptane and the polar phases; DMSO, DMF, acetonitrile and 80% methanol‐water v/v. The distribution of four vegetable oils in these solvent pairs was also examined, as well as the influence of the oil on the partition of the antioxidants. Consideration has been given to requirements for quantitative extraction in the more promising cases.
