The structure of Tallow oleic acid may be deduced from the following reactions. 

Treatment with selenium or oxides of nitrogen partially transforms it into the trans isomer elaidic acid. 
The arrangement of its 18 carbon atoms and the position of the double bond are demonstrated by its catalytic hydrogenation to stearic acid, CH3(CH2)16CO2H, and its oxidative cleavage to nonanoic (pelargonic) acid, CH3(CH2)7CO2H, and azelaic acid, HO2C(CH2)7CO2H. 

When Tallow oleic acid is heated with alkali, migration of the double bond occurs, giving the α,β-unsaturated acid CH3(CH2)14CH=CHCO2H, and this, on further heating with alkali, gives palmitic acid, CH3(CH2)14CO2H.
