SummaryThe optical rotations of four crude sesame oils were calculated on the basis of their known contents of sesamin, sesamolin, and phytosterols and the reported optical activities for each of these components. The calculated optical rotations were compared with those observed for the oils in the absence of solvent and were found to agree remarkably well.Sesamin, sesamolin, and phytosterol have been shown to be responsible for the observed optical rotations of several sesame oils and to account for 75 to 85% of the total unsaponifiable matter of these oils.
