FAT
MARGARINE
In clinical studies, trans fatty acids or hydrogenated
fats tend to raise total blood cholesterol levels
and LDL ("bad") cholesterol and lower HDL
(“GOOD”) cholesterol when used instead of cis
fatty acids or natural oils. These changes may
increase the risk of heart disease.

Basicity of amines
The greater the availability of the lone pair electrons on nitrogen, the greater the base.
In the old days, pKb was a measure of base strength.
Kb = [RNH3+] [OH-] / RNH2
pKb = - log Kb
The stronger the base the lower the pKb
EFFECTS ON AMINE BASICITY
1. INDUCTIVE EFFECT - ALKYL SUBSTITUTION

METHYL GROUP INCREASES ELECTRON DENSITY ON N
2 METHYLS ARE BETTER THAN ONE
WATCH OUT THREE METHYL GROUPS DECREASES
BASICITY pKb = 4.26 - Steric inhibition of solvation of HOH
with the NH+ of the R3NH+ cation.
2. RESONANCE EFFECT

So reaction is run with reducing presence at all times.
This means that there will both product
