Lipids Types of Lipids Fatty Acids Fats, and Oils Chemical Properties of Triglycerides
Types of Lipids Lipids with fatty acids Waxes Fats and oils (trigycerides) Phospholipids Sphingolipids Lipids without fatty acids Steroids
Fatty Acids Long-chain carboxylic acids Insoluble in water Typically 12-18 carbon atoms (even number) Some contain double bonds corn oil contains 86%  unsaturated fatty acids and  14%  saturated fatty acids
Saturated and Unsaturated Fatty Acids Saturated = C–C bonds Unsaturated = one or more C=C bonds
Structures Saturated fatty acids Fit closely in regular pattern Unsaturated fatty acids Cis double bonds
Properties of Saturated Fatty Acids Contain only single C–C bonds Closely packed  Strong attractions between chains High melting points Solids at room temperature
Properties of Unsaturated Fatty Acids Contain one or more double C=C bonds Nonlinear chains do not allow molecules to pack closely Few interactions between chains Low melting points Liquids at room temperature
Learning Check L1 How would the melting point of stearic acid compare to the melting points of oleic acid and linoleic acid? Assign the melting points of –17°C, 13°C, and 69°C to the correct fatty acid.  Explain. stearic acid  (18 C)  saturated oleic acid  (18 C)  one double bond linoleic acid  (18 C)  two double bonds
Solution L1 Stearic acid is saturated and would have a higher melting point than the unsaturated fatty acids.  Because linoleic has two double bonds, it would have a lower mp than oleic acid, which has one double bond. stearic acid  mp 69°C oleic acid  mp  13°C linoleic acid mp -17°C

Properties of Triglycerides Hydrogenation Unsaturated compounds react with H 2   Ni or Pt catalyst C=C bonds    C–C bonds Hydrolysis Split by water and acid or enzyme catalyst Produce glycerol and 3 fatty acids
Hydrogenation
Product of Hydrogenation Hydrogenation converts double bonds in oils to single bonds.  The solid products are used to make margarine and other hydrogenated items .
Hydrolysis Triglycerides split into glycerol and three fatty acids (H +  or enzyme catalyst)
Saponification and Soap Hydrolysis with a strong base Triglycerides split into glycerol and the salts of fatty acids  The salts of fatty acids are “soaps” KOH gives softer soaps

Fatty Acids The Length of the Carbon Chain long-chain, medium-chain, short-chain The Degree of Unsaturation saturated, unsaturated, monounsaturated, polyunsaturated The Location of Double Bonds omega-3 fatty acid, omega-6 fatty acid
The Length of the Carbon Chain Short-chain Fatty Acid (less than 6 carbons) Medium-chain Fatty Acid (6-10 carbons) Long-chain Fatty Acid (12 or more carbons)
Fatty Acids are Key Building Blocks Saturated Fatty Acid  All single bonds between carbons
Monounsaturated Fatty Acid (MUFA) One carbon-carbon double bond
Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid (PUFA) More than one carbon-carbon double bond
Location of Double Bonds PUFA are identified by position of the double bond nearest the methyl end (CH 3 ) of the carbon chain; this is described as a omega number; If PUFA has first double bond 3 carbons away from the methyl end=omega 3 FA 6 carbons from methyl end=omega 6 FA
Degree of Unsaturation Firmness saturated vs. unsaturated Stability oxidation, antioxidants Hydrogenation advantages, disadvantages Trans-Fatty Acids from hydrogenation

Fatty Acids in Common Food Fats
 
Phospholipids Structure Glycerol + 2 fatty acids + phosphate group Functions Component of cell membranes Lipid transport as part of lipoproteins Emulsifiers Phosphatidylcholine Food sources Egg yolks, liver, soybeans, peanuts
Cell membranes are phospholipid  bilayers
 
Sterols: Cholesterol Functions Component of cell membranes Precursor to other substances Sterol hormones Vitamin D Bile acids Synthesis Made mainly in the liver Food sources Found only in animal foods
Lipid Digestion In the Mouth hard fats begin to melt; lingual lipase In the Stomach gastric lipase--SCFA In the Small Intestine release of CCK; bile-emulsifier; fat drawn into surrounding watery fluids; intestinal lipases; remove each TG fatty acid; leave glycerol; Bile Routes reabsorbed or trapped by dietary fiber
 
Olestra Sucrose + fatty acids Indigestible – provides zero kcals Reduces absorption of fat-soluble vitamins So many fatty acid chains are crowded around the core, the digestive enzymes cannot find a breaking point Orlistat (Xenical) * binds to active site of GI lipase and blocks its activity; thus, lipase can’t break TG down to component parts; TG remains undigested and unabsorbed
