Chapter 10, Problem 1P
Interpretation Introduction

(a) Interpretation:

The structure of Cis-9-Dodecenoic acid should be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

The cis-9-dodecenoic acid is an isomer of a 9-dodecenoic acid having a cis configuration. The linear chain of this fatty acid consists of 12 carbons, with the terminal ends having a carboxyl group.

Interpretation Introduction

(b) Interpretation:

The structure of 18:1cΔ11 should be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

The 18:1cΔ11 fatty acid is a monounsaturated fatty acid, in this the number 18 depicts the number of carbon atoms in the linear chain, 1 represents a single unsaturation site, cΔ11 represents the presence of unsaturation at the 11th carbon.

Expert Solution

Explanation of Solution

The fatty acid 18:1cΔ11 having 18 carbon chain and with an unsaturation on the 11th carbon is depicted in the figure given below:

Interpretation Introduction

(c) Interpretation:

The structure of a saturated fatty acid that should melt below 300C should be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

The fatty acids having a lighter chain tends to melt at a lower temperature. Increase in the number of carbons increases the melting point of the fatty acids. The n-octanoic acid is well known to melt at a temperature of 16-170C.

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

The structure of n-octanoic acid having a melting point 16-170C is depicted in the figure given below:

Macmillan Learning Cholesterol synthesis begins with the formation of mevalonate from acetyl CoA. This process activates mevalonate and converts it to isopentenyl pyrophosphate. Identify the atoms in mevalonate and isopentenyl pyrophosphate that will be labeled from acetyl CoA labeled with 14C in the carbonyl carbon. Place 14C atoms and C atoms to denote which carbon atoms are labeled and which are not labeled.
