Question
Chapter 13, Problem 13.93P
Interpretation Introduction
(a)
Interpretation:
The two constitutional isomers formed when linoleic acid is partially hydrogenated with one equivalent of H2 need to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
- Fatty acids are carboxylic acids consisting of a long hydrocarbon chain with a terminal
carboxylic acid group. - The hydrocarbon chain can be saturated (saturated fatty acids) or unsaturated (unsaturated fatty acids)
- Hydrogenation refers to the process in which hydrogen is added across a carbon-carbon double bond associated with unsaturated fatty acids.
Interpretation Introduction
(b)
Interpretation:
The product when linoleic acid is completely hydrogenated by H2 needs to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
- Fatty acids are carboxylic acids consisting of a long hydrocarbon chain with a terminal carboxylic acid group.
- The hydrocarbon chain can be saturated (saturated fatty acids) or unsaturated (unsaturated fatty acids)
- Hydrogenation refers to the process in which hydrogen is added across a carbon-carbon double bond associated with unsaturated fatty acids.
Interpretation Introduction
(c)
Interpretation:
The product formed during the hydrogenation of linoleic acid when one of the cis double bonds is converted to a trans double bond needs to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
- Fatty acids are carboxylic acids consisting of a long hydrocarbon chain with a terminal carboxylic acid group.
- The hydrocarbon chain can be saturated (saturated fatty acids) or unsaturated (unsaturated fatty acids)
- Hydrogenation refers to the process in which hydrogen is added across a carbon-carbon double bond associated with unsaturated fatty acids.
- Cis-trans isomers are geometric isomers. Cis isomers are isomers where
functional groups appear on the same side of a double bond; in trans isomers, they appear on opposite sides of a double bond.
