Compositions including olefinic ester compounds are generally disclosed. In some embodiments, such compositions are cleaning compositions, and can be used to clean various surfaces (e.g., hard surfaces, etc.) and/or materials (e.g., textiles, fibers, etc.). In some embodiments, the olefinic ester compounds are derived from a natural oil or a natural oil derivative, for example, by catalytic olefin metathesis.

Olefinic ester compositions and their use as cleaning agents

A metathesized natural oil composition comprising (i) a mixture olefins and/or esters, or (ii) a metathesized natural oil, is disclosed. The metathesized natural oil composition has a number average molecular weight in the range from about 100 g/mol to about 150,000 g/mol, a weight average molecular weight in the range from about 1,000 g/mol to about 100,000 g/mol, a z-average molecular weight in the range from about 5,000 g/mol to about 1,000,000 g/mol, and a polydispersity index of about 1 to about 20. The metathesized natural oil composition is metathesized at least once.

Natural oil metathesis compositions and methods

Methods and compositions are provided for refining natural oils and for producing high-weight esters, high-weight acids, and/or high-weight derivatives thereof, wherein the compositions are made by cross-metathesizing low-weight unsaturated esters or low-weight unsaturated acids having hydrocarbon chain lengths less than or equal to C24 with an olefin feedstock, thereby forming a metathesized product composition including high-weight esters or high-weight acids having hydrocarbon chain lengths greater than C18, wherein at least a portion of the hydrocarbon chain lengths in the metathesized product are larger than the hydrocarbon chain lengths in the starting feedstock.

Methods of making high-weight esters, acids, and derivatives thereof

Methods of making branched isoparaffin compositions derived from natural oil based linear internal olefins are disclosed. Uses of branched isoparaffins formed by such methods are also disclosed.
