The products expected to be formed when glyceryl trioleate reacts with O3, then with Zn/CH3COOH are given below.
Explanation of Solution
When glyceryl trioleate is treated with O3 and then with Zn/CH3COOH, ozone adds to the three double bonds to yield a triozonide which is cleaved when treated with Zn/CH3COOH to give two different aldehydes as products. The aldehyde carbons are present in a double bond in glyceryl trioleate.

Answer to Problem 20AP
The products expected to be formed when glyceryl trioleate reacts with LiAlH4, then with H3O+ are given below.
Explanation of Solution
When glyceryl trioleate is treated with LiAlH4 and then with H3O+ the ester linkages in it are reduced to alcohols. LiAlH4 does not reduce the double bonds in glyceryl trioleate.

Concept introduction:
Esters when treated with a Grignard reagent and then with H3O+, react with two equivalents of the Grignard reagent to yield a tertiary alcohol. In oils and fats addition of Grignard reagent will take place to all the three carbonyl groups in the ester.

The products expected to be formed when glyceryl trioleate reacts with CH3MgBr, then with H3O+.
Answer to Problem 20AP
The products expected to be formed when glyceryl trioleate reacts with CH3MgBr, then with H3O+ are given below.
Explanation of Solution
When glyceryl trioleate is treated with CH3MgBr, addition to carbonyl carbons takes place. The addition product when hydrolyzed with H3O+ yields three equivalents of a tertiary alcohol and glycerol as products.
The products expected to be formed when glyceryl trioleate reacts with CH3MgBr, then with H3O+ are given below.

- Which carbocation is more stable?arrow_forwardAre the products of the given reaction correct? Why or why not?arrow_forwardThe question below asks why the products shown are NOT the correct products. I asked this already, and the person explained why those are the correct products, as opposed to what we would think should be the correct products. That's the opposite of what the question was asking. Why are they not the correct products? A reaction mechanism for how we arrive at the correct products is requested ("using key intermediates"). In other words, why is HCl added to the terminal alkene rather than the internal alkene?arrow_forward
