Question

Draw the NaOH-mediated saponification reaction of a triacylglycerol in which you represent the hydrocarbon tails of the three acyl chains as R1, R2 and R3, i.e. as C-O-CO-R1 C-O-CO-R2 C-O-CO-R3. • Be sure to include OH' as a reactant, but do not include Nat. • Draw the reaction for the complexe saponification of the triacylglycerol. . You must include the ester linkage atoms and carboxylic acid atoms explicitly in your drawing they are not considered to be parts of R1, R2 or R3. • The R group tool is located in the charges and lone pairs drop-down menu. • Draw one structure per sketcher. Add additional sketchers using the drop-down menu in the bottom right comer. • Separate multiple reactants using the sign from the drop-down menu • Separate multiple products using the sign from the drop-down menu. • Separate reactants from products using the symbol from the drop-down menu.
