esters of glycerol + 3 FA
Chemical structure.
• Oils and fats – important for storing
chemical energy in living things.
• Oils are liquids – fats are solids.
• Made from esters of propane-1,2,3,triol
(glycerol) + long chain carboxylic acids
RCOOH.

• Functions of Oils and fats
Common fatty acids
Types of triesters
• Triesters
H (triglycerides) –
3 carboxylic
H-C-O-R acids react with
H-C-O-R’ triol.
• Mixed triesters –
H-C-O-R’’
three acid
H groups, not all
alike often found
in natural oils
and fats.
Fat facts!
• Natural oils and fats are mixtures of
triesters.
• Can be split up by hydrolysis, heat
with conc. NaOH.
• Triester + NaOH glycerol + sodium
salt of acid
• Basis of soap manufacture eg.
“Palmolive”
• Convert sodium salts to free acids by
adding dil. HCl or other mineral acid.

4. Hydrogenolysis
Trans-esterification
Ois and fats react with alcohol in presence of acidic or
basic catalyst to form mixture of esters product
Analysis of Oils and Fats
Materials:
1- Fats and oils (olive oil, coconut oil, sesame oil, and
butter)
2- Fat solvent (equal volumes of 95% ethanol and ether)
3-Alcholic KOH (0.5 mol/liter)
4-Reflux condenser.
5-Boiling water bath.
6-Phenolphethalein.
7-Hydrochloric acid (0.5 mol/liter)

Soaps are environment-friendly products These compounds can form a thick foam
since they are biodegradable. that causes the death of aquatic life.
