Avocatin B shows eutectic phase behaviour. (A) Chemical structures of avocadene and avocadyne. (B) Representative DSC melting thermograms for avocadene, avocadyne and their mixtures. Plots have been nudged for illustration. (C) Melting temperatures (left Y-axis) and melting enthalpies (right Y-axis) as a function of avocadene and avocadyne composition. (D) Domain size (left Y-axis) and melting entropy (right Y-axis), ΔSm as a function of avocadene and avocadyne composition. For (C,D) values are means ± SD from three independent experiments.
