Materials and Techniques: The soaps eml)loye([,
and their origin or mode of preparatiolb are summarized in Table I. X - r a y diffraction patterns were
obtained at room temperature (ca. 25~
with a
North American Philips Co. recording x-ray spectrometer as previously (teseribed (12). Differential
heating curves were obtained using white nlinera[ oil
as a referen(;e nmterial in the calorimeter, also de.~(.ribed e l s e w h e r e (9). The heating rate normally
('ml)h)yed was 1.5 degrees per mitmte. Lack of perfeet performance of the control syslenl oeeasionally

1)oriions of a run. A few runs were made at 0.5 (legrees per minute, which rate leads to a lower sensitivity but assists in resolving sueeessive close-lying
transitions.
Results: X - r a y diffraction patterns for the several

Discussion
X - r a y Diffraction Patterns:
Vold and I I a t t i a n g d i
(13) suggested t h a t the diffraction p a t t e r n s of m e t a l
palmitates and stearates were sufficiently characteristic to permit identification of the cation without necessarily having information as to the nature of the
anion. For barium soaps and calcium soap hydrates
the inclusion of 50% oleate to form a mixed soap
approxinmting the composition of tallow soaps in no
w a y vitiates this scheme. E v e n pure hydrated calcium oleate 3 yields a rather similar pattern.
C a l c i u m s o a p h y d r a t e s u n d e r g o an a p p r e c i a b l e
change in crystal f o r m u p o n d e h y d r a t i o n (cf. curves
I a n d I I of Figs. 2 a n d 3) only w h e n e x t r e m e l y p u r e
(10). W h e n it occurs, this change a p p e a r s to be i(lentical for palmitates and stearates.
Lithium palmitate and stearate have almost identical diffraction p a t t e r n s at room t e m p e r a t u r e . ]lowever both lithium tallowate and lithium h y d r o x y stea r a t e exhibit l a r g e r variatiollS. The position of the
most intense short spacing (line B, Fig. 4) is n e a r l y
a R e p o r t s differ (4, 10) as to w h e t h e r calcium oleate forms a
m o n o h y d r a t e or a d i h y d r a t e . This sample c o n l a i n e d 2.23% tt._,O, not
q u i t e sufficient for the m o n o h y d r a t e .

the same for all four, but that of the next most intense (line I)) is shifted to an appreciably larger
value (3.62--->3.77) in going from the normal hydrocarbon chain to the geometrically less uniform unsaturated or hydroxylated chain. Likewise, several
p r o m i n e n t diffraction bands in the region of 2 A
in the patterns of the stearate and palnfitate are
missing from the patterns of the tallowate and hydroxystearate. Nevertheless the points of similarity
between the patterns of the four lithium soaps are
sufficient to differentiate them as a class distinct from
the patterns of soaps of other cations.
The degree of similarity existing between the diffraction patterns of soaps of the same eation in contrast with the differences between patterns of soaps
of different cations suggests that the relative orientation of carboxylate groups and metal ions is not
markedly affected b y the tendency of hydroearbon
chains of v a r y i n g length or even ehemical character
(i.e. unsaturated, hydroxylated) to pack together in
different ways.
The " l o n g " spacing can be interpreted as the effective length of a repeating unit consisting of two f a t t y
acid ions and associated cations times the sine of the
angle of inclination of the chain axis to the planes
containing the cations. The difference in chain length
between palmitate and stearate is 5.08 A (for two
ions). The differences in long spacing to be expected
are less than this by a factor depending on the angle
of tilt. Comparison of these values with the observed
differences shows that even for pahnitates and stearates with o t h e r w i s e nearly identical patterns the
angle of tip of the chains cannot be identical.
The long spacing of the lithium soaps is signitleantly shorter than for calcium or b a r i u m soaps.
Ih)wever it is interesting to ol)serve that this spacing
for lithium h y d r o x y stearate is considerably larger
than for other soaps, possibly due to the influence of
strong Van der Waal forces between the hydroxyl
groups forcing a more nearly perpendicular orientation of the chains.
The apparent absence of a long spacing in e.ither
of the rosins (mixed acids of geometry similar to
abietie acid) :
is llot surprising, in view of the fact that the, tendency of the carboxyl group to dimerize is opposed
by the difficulty of securing an efficient packing of
the balance of the molecule on a " h e a d " to " h c a d "
basis. IIowever, large values of d / n are found for
the calcium resinates which suggests a head to head
arrangement. The difficulty of packing the molecules
together is possibly the source of the lack of defhfition in the diffraction patterns of caleimn resinates,
even the one made from a hydrogenated crystalline
rosin. The absence of polymorphic transitions in eal-

Summary
X - r a y diffraction p a t t e r n s at room t e m p e r a t u r e for
soaps of barium, calcium, and l i t h i u m were found
to be characteristic for different soaps of the same
cation. This is true not only for palmitates and stearates b u t also (with minor variations) for mixed
soaps containing up to at least 50% oleate, for I)urc
ealeimn oleate, and even for lithimn 1 2 - h y d r o x y stearate.
Soaps of the same cation in mixtures a p p r o x i m a t ing the coml)osition of natural tallow f a t t y acids app e a r to f o r m mixed crystals. The succession of phases
f o r m e d on heating shows strongly the influence of the
oleate in the mixture.
