Question
Chapter 18, Problem 38CI
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
An organic compound can have many structures by which they can be represented, such as molecular formula, Lewis structure, structural formula and condensed formula.
Concept introduction:
- A condensed structural formula is a more compact way of drawing the structural formula of a molecule which is also called as a semi-structural formula.
- In a condensed structural formula covalent bonds are not shown and atoms of the same type bonded to one another are grouped together in a line.
- If there is repetition of a group in a chain, then brackets [square brackets] are used to indicate the repetition of a group in a chain.
A subscript number written to the right of the final bracket tells us how many times this group of atoms is found in this position in the molecule. - If groups of atoms are attached to a chain, then parentheses (round brackets) are used to enclose groups attached to a chain
- Double and/or triple covalent bonds between carbon atoms are shown in the condensed structural formula.
Interpretation Introduction
To determine:
To determine the condensed structural formula for each of the following-
a. Myristic acid
b. Glyceryl trimyristate (trimyristin)
c. Isopropyl myristate
d. Products from the hydrolysis of glyceryl trimyristate with an acid catalyst.
e. Products from the saponification of glyceryl trimyristate with
f. Reactant and product for oxidation of myristyl alcohol to myristic acid.
