Question
Draw a triacylglycerol (triglyceride) made from glycerol, myristic acid [CH₂(CH₂)2COOH], palmitic acid
[CH₂(CH₂)₁4COOH], and oleic acid [CH₂(CH₂)₂CH=CH(CH₂),COOH(cis)] . Place palmitic acid at the middle position.
Cis/trans isometry is graded; it may help to draw hydrogen atoms associated with the carbon atoms of the double bond.
