Chapter 15 Lipids 15.1 Lipids Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings 1 Lipids Lipids are Biomolecules that contain fatty acids or a steroid nucleus. Soluble in organic solvents but not in water. Named for the Greek word lipos, which means “fat.” Extracted from cells using organic solvents. 2 Types of Lipids The types of lipids containing fatty acids are Waxes. Fats and oils (triacylglycerols). Glycerophospholipids. Prostaglandins. Not steroids, as they do not contain fatty acids. 3 Structures of Lipids 4 Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings 15.2 Fatty Acids Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings 5 Fatty Acids Fatty acids Are long-chain carboxylic acids. Typically contain 12-18 carbon atoms. Are insoluble in water. Can be saturated or unsaturated. 6 Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings Fatty Acid Formulas The formulas for fatty acids are written as Condensed formulas. Line-bond formulas. For example caprylic acid with 8 carbon atoms. CH3—(CH2)6—COOH CH3—CH2—CH2—CH2—CH2—CH2—CH2—COOH O OH 7 Saturated Fatty Acids Saturated fatty acids have Single C–C bonds. Molecules that fit closely together in a regular pattern. Strong attractions between fatty acid chains. High melting points that make them solids at room temperature. 8 Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings Some Saturated Fatty Acids Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc.

Explain. stearic acid (18 C) saturated oleic acid (18 C) one double bond linoleic acid (18 C) two double bonds 14 Solution Stearic acid is saturated and would have a higher melting point than the unsaturated fatty acids. Because linoleic has two double bonds, it would have a lower mp than oleic acid, which has one double bond. stearic acid mp 69°C saturated oleic acid mp 13°C linoleic acid mp -17°C most unsaturated 15 Prostaglandins Prostaglandins have 20 carbon atoms in their fatty acid chains.

Publishing as Benjamin Cummings Chemical Properties of Triacylglycerols Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings 34 Chemical Properties of Triacylglycerols The chemical reactions of triacylglycerols are similar to those of alkenes and esters. In hydrogenation, double bonds in unsaturated fatty acids react with H2 in the presence of a Ni or Pt catalyst. In hydrolysis, ester bonds are split by water in the presence of an acid, a base, or an enzyme. 35 Hydrogenation of Oils The hydrogenation of oils Adds hydrogen (H2) to the carbon atoms of double bonds. Converts double bonds to single bonds. Increases the melting point. Produces solids such as margarine and shortening. 36 Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc Publishing as Benjamin Cummings Hydrogenation O CH2 O C (CH2)5CH CH(CH2)7CH3 Ni O CH CH2 O O + 3H2 C (CH2)5CH CH(CH2)7CH3 O C O (CH2)5CH CH(CH2)7CH3 CH2 O C (CH2)14CH3 O glyceryl tripalmitoleate (tripalmitolean) CH O CH2 O C (CH2)14CH3 O C (CH2)14CH3 glyceryl tripalmitate (tripalmitin) 37 Learning Check What product(s) is obtained from the complete hydrogenation of glyceryl trioleate? 1.
