Chapter 15: Q. 15.22 (page 521)

Draw the condensed structural formula for a mixed triacylglycerol that contains two palmitic acid molecules and one oleic acid molecule on the center carbon of glycerol.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The condensed structural formula for a mixed triacylglycerol that contains two palmitic acid molecules and one oleic acid molecule on the center carbon of glycerol.

Step by step solution

01

Given data

The condensed structural formula for a mixed triacylglycerol that contains two palmitic acid molecules and one oleic acid molecule on the center carbon of glycerol.

02

An Introduction

The triacylglycerols are the predominant form of dietary lipids found in fats and oils, whether derived from plants or animals. Triacylglycerols are composed of three fatty acids

03

Determine the condensed structural formula for a mixed triacylglycerol that contains two palmitic acid molecules and one oleic acid molecule on the center carbon of glycerol. 

Glycerol is an alcohol and palmitic and oleic acids are carboxylic acids, which means that the given reaction is basically a multiple esterification.

To draw the triacylglyceride product draw the structure of glycerol and the given carboxylic acids and then bond the alkoxy groups from glycerol to the carbonyl groups of the carboxylic acids instead of the hydroxy groups.
