a)
Interpretation:
The products need to be predicted when tripalmitolein is treated with the given set of reagents.
Concept introduction:
Reduction is a reaction in which hydrogen is added to the given compound. One of the examples is conversion of unsaturated bonds to saturated bonds.
To predict: the product formed when tripalmitolein is treated with excess hydrogen and nickel.
a)

Answer to Problem 29PP
Solution:
The product predicted when tripalmitolein is treated with hydrogen and nickel is,
Explanation of Solution
Structure of tripalmitolein
The structure of tripalmitolein is drawn as above. In tripalmitolein there are three double bonds.
Reaction with excess hydrogen and nickel.
When tripalmitolein is treated with excess hydrogen and nickel, all the double bonds present in the fatty acid residue are reduced to saturated bonds to give a saturated triglyceride as shown above.
The product formed when tripalmitolein undergoes reaction with excess hydrogen and nickel is a saturated triglyceride and the structure is,
(b)
Interpretation:
The products need to be predicted when tripalmitolein is treated with the given set of reagents.
Concept introduction:
When triglyceride is treated with aqueous sodium hydroxide, the ester group is hydrolyzed to give glycerol and the fatty acid as carboxylate ion.
To predict: the product formed when tripalmitolein is treated with aqueous sodium hydroxide.
(b)

Answer to Problem 29PP
Answer
The product obtained when tripalmitolein is treated with aqueous base is,
Explanation of Solution
Structure of tripalmitolein
The structure of tripalmitolein is drawn as above. In tripalmitolein there are three ester groups.
Reaction with excess hydrogen and nickel.
When tripalmitolein is treated with aqueous sodium hydroxide the ester group is hydrolyzed to form glycerol and fatty acid carboxylate ion.
The product formed when tripalmitolein is treated with aqueous sodium hydroxide is glycerol and three equivalents of carboxylate ion,

Generate a molecular orbital diagram but this time using a different approach that draws on your knowledge and ability to put concepts together. First use VSEPR or some other method to make sure you know the ground state structure of the molecule. Next, generate an MO diagram for BH2. Sketch the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied MOs of the BH2 fragment. These are called frontier orbitals. Now use these frontier orbitals as your basis set for producing LGO's for B2H6. Since the BH2 frontier orbitals become the LGOS, you will have to think about what is in the middle of the molecule and treat its basis as well. Do you arrive at the same qualitative MO diagram as is discussed in the book?
