Question
Chapter 15, Problem 15.65UTC
Interpretation Introduction
To determine: The condensed structural formula of glyceryl tripalmitate
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 15.65UTC
Solution:
Explanation of Solution
Glyceryl tripalmitate or tripalmitin is an ester of glycerol and palmitic acid.
Ester: The compound that contains
group is ester. Esters are formed by the reaction of a
The reaction between glycerol and 3 moles of palmitic acid results in the formation of glyceryl tripalmitate (ester).
Condensed structural formula:
In the condensed structural formula one cannot draw the carbon and hydrogen bonds. It is the small form of the structure. For example, the condensed structural formula for acetic acid is as follows:
The structure of glycerol is as follows:
Palmitic acid is an example of saturated acid. The structure of palmitic acid is as follows:
The condensed structural formula of glyceryl tripalmitate is as follows:
Conclusion
Therefore, the condensed structural formula of glyceryl tripalmitate is as follows:
