Solutions for Lipids 20 Reagents in parts (a), (b), and (d) would react with alkenes. If both samples contained alkenes, these reagents could not distinguish the samples. Saponification (part (c)), however, is a reaction of an ester, so only the vegetable oil would react, not the hydrocarbon oil mixture. With saponification of a vegetable oil, as NaOH is consumed, the pH would gradually drop; with a petroleum oil, the pH would not change.

Sodium stearate will produce a precipitate, while the sulfonate will not precipitate. (b) Beeswax, an ester, can be saponified with NaOH. Paraffin wax is a solid mixture of alkanes and will not react. (c) Myristic acid will dissolve (or be emulsified) in dilute aqueous base. Trimyristin will remain unaffected. (d) Triolein (an unsaturated oil) will decolorize bromine in CCl4, but trimyristin (a saturated fat) will not. 22 (a) (b) asymmetric carbon * optically active* 23 optically active not optically active; symmetric asymmetric carbon not optically active (a) C O (CH2)16CH3 C (CH2)16CH3 O C (CH2)16CH3 O O O CH2 CH CH2 O H2 Ni 665
