Nutmeg contains a simple, fully saturated triacylglycerol with a molecular weight of 722. Draw its structure.
ח'
x
C
A mixed triacylglycerol that contains one saturated 8-carbon fatty acid chain and two 6-carbon fatty acid chains with 2 trans double bonds each.
4. The ester you drew in Question #1 has a melting point range of 32-35 °C. The methyl ester of mono-unsaturated
palmitoleic acid (IUPAC name: hexadec-9enoic acid) has a considerably lower melting point range: -0.5-+0.5 °C.
a) Explain what it means for a fatty acid to the "mono-unsaturated."
b) Illustrate your explanation by drawing the structure of the methyl ester of octadec-11-enoic acid. (Be sure to draw
the geometric stereoisomer that is commonly found in nature.)
