  2. Glycerol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycerol

    Triglyceride 3 NaOH / H 2 O Δ 3 × soap 3 × glycerol Triglycerides can be saponified with sodium hydroxide to give glycerol and fatty sodium salt or soap. Typical plant sources include soybeans or palm. Animal-derived tallow is another source. Approximately 950,000 tons per year are produced in the United States and Europe; 350,000 tons of glycerol were produced per year in the U.S. alone ...

  3. List of esters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_esters

    According to some authors, organyl derivatives of acidic hydrogen of other acids are esters as well (e.g. amides), but not according to the IUPAC. [ 1 ] An example of an ester formation is the substitution reaction between a carboxylic acid ( R−C(=O)−OH ) and an alcohol (R'OH), forming an ester ( R−C(=O)−O−R' ), where R and R′ are ...

    There are three structural isomers: 1,2-dihydroxybenzene (the ortho isomer) is commonly known as catechol, 1,3-dihydroxybenzene (the meta isomer) is commonly known as resorcinol, and 1,4-dihydroxybenzene (the para isomer) is commonly known as hydroquinone. [1]

  6. Glycerol 3-phosphate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycerol_3-phosphate

    It is one of two stereoisomers of the ester of dibasic phosphoric acid (HOPO 3 2-) and glycerol. It is a component of bacterial and eukaryotic glycerophospholipids. [2] From a historical reason, it is also known as L-glycerol 3-phosphate, D-glycerol 1-phosphate, L-α-glycerophosphoric acid.

  7. Polyglycerol polyricinoleate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyglycerol_polyricinoleate

    In chocolate, compound chocolate and similar coatings, PGPR is mainly used with another substance like lecithin [2] to reduce viscosity. It is used at low levels (below 0.5%), [ 3 ] [ 4 ] and works by decreasing the friction between the solid particles (e.g. cacao , sugar , milk ) in molten chocolate, reducing the yield stress so that it flows ...

  8. Triacetin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triacetin

    3 (CH 3 CO) 2 O + 1 C 3 H 5 (OH) 3 → 1 C 3 H 5 (OCOCH 3) 3 + 3 CH 3 CO 2 H. This synthesis has been conducted with catalytic sodium hydroxide and microwave irradiation to give a 99% yield of triacetin. [14] It has also been conducted with a cobalt(II) Salen complex catalyst supported by silicon dioxide and heated to 50 °C for 55 minutes to ...

  9. Glycerol 1-phosphate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycerol_1-phosphate

    DHAP and thus glycerol 1-phosphate is also possible to be synthesized from amino acids and citric acid cycle intermediates via gluconeogenesis pathway. + NAD(P)H + H + → + NAD(P) + Glycerol 1-phosphate is a starting material for de novo synthesis of ether lipids, such as those derived from archaeol and caldarchaeol .
