  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 carboxylic acids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_carboxylic_acids

    The systematic IUPAC name is not always the preferred IUPAC name, for example, lactic acid is a common, and also the preferred, name for what systematic rules call 2-hydroxypropanoic acid. This list is ordered by the number of carbon atoms in a carboxylic acid.

  4. List of esters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_esters

    An ester of carboxylic acid.R stands for any group (organic or inorganic) and R′ stands for organyl group.. In chemistry, an ester is a compound derived from an acid (organic or inorganic) in which the hydrogen atom (H) of at least one acidic hydroxyl group (−OH) of that acid is replaced by an organyl group (−R).

  5. Propane-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propane-1,2,3-tri...

    [1] Esters of propane-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid are found in natural products such as the mycotoxins fumonisins B1 and B2 and AAL toxin T A, and in macrocyclic inhibitors of Ras farnesyl-protein transferase (FPTase) such as actinoplanic acid. Propane-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid can be synthesized in two steps from fumaric acid. [2]

  6. Dihydroxybenzenes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihydroxybenzenes

    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]

  7. 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 ...

  8. 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 .

  9. Glycerine acetate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycerine_acetate

    Glycerine acetate is a mixture of esters produced from the esterification of glycerol (1) with acetic acid. This reaction produces five congeners: the two monoacetylglycerols / MAG / monoacetin (2 and 3) the two diacetylglycerols / DAG / diacetin / glyceryl diacetate (4 and 5) the one triacetalglycerol / TAG / triacetin (6)
