- 1842 March, M. Meyer, “Investigations Concerning Elaïdic Acid”, in The Chemist; or, Reporter of Chemical Discoveries and Improvements, and Protector of the Rights of the Chemist and Chemical Manufacturer, volume III, number XXVII, London, page 75, column 2:
- The soap of soda, dissolved with heat in alcohol, gave, by cooling, crystals of the neutral elaïdate, of a silvery lustre, resembling those of the free acid, only being much finer. By dissolving the neutral elaïdate of soda in alcohol, and by decomposing it by a neutral solution of nitrate of silver, a white and bulky precipitate of elaïdate of that base was obtained.
- 1856, Campbell Morfit, “The Proximate Principles of Fats; Their Composition and Properties”, in A Treatise on Chemistry Applied to the Manufacture of Soap and Candles; […], Philadelphia, Pa.: Parry and McMillan, page 153:
- The alkaline elaïdates are crystallizable, and soluble in alcohol and in water; but an excess of the latter decomposes them into insoluble acid salts. The earthy and metallic elaïdates are either wholly or nearly insoluble in water, alcohol, and ether.
- 1882, Henry Watts, A Dictionary of Chemistry and the Allied Branches of Other Sciences, volume II, London: Longmans, Green, and Co., page 368:
- All the neutral elaïdates are insoluble in water, only the alkaline salts containing excess of alkali being soluble.
