Oxidation of 2,5‐disubstituted furan‐containing fatty acids by the von Rudloff or Brown procedures results in the production of monoacid and diacid fragments, which can be readily identified by gas liquid chromatography (GLC) analysis. Cleavages occur at the C? double bonds of the furan ring system with von Rudloff’s reagent. A mixture of 2 monoacid and 2 diacid fragments are obtained instead when the furan‐containing fatty acid is treated with chromic acid according to Brown’s procedure. These chemical methods are suitable for locating the position of the furan system in the fatty
