• General Description: TRIGLYCEROL, also known as 1,2-Propanediol,3,3'-[(2-hydroxytrimethylene)dioxy]di-, is a key intermediate in the synthesis of structurally well-defined triglyceryl di-, tri-, and tetra-fatty acid esters, which function as effective oil gelators. These esters demonstrate strong gelation capabilities, enabling them to gel a wide range of cooking oils, with their performance influenced by the length of the alkyl chains in the fatty acid components. The compound serves as a foundational building block in the production of these gelators, highlighting its utility in creating functional materials for oil stabilization.

Synthesis of structurally weil-defined triglyceryl di-, tri-, and tetra-fatty acid esters as new oil gelators

10.1055/s-0028-1083601

The research focuses on the development and synthesis of chemically modified linear and cyclic polyglycerols and their esters, specifically triglyceryl di-, tri-, and tetra-fatty acid esters, which are structurally well-defined and have a single polymerization degree. The purpose of this study is to create new oil gelators capable of gelling up cooking oils, with a particular emphasis on understanding the role of alkyl chain length in the gelation process. The study concluded that these triglyceryl ester gelators exhibit prominent gelation ability and can gel a wide variety of oils. Key chemicals used in the synthesis process include triglycerol, fatty acid esters such as stearic, myristic, palmitic, and arachidic acids, benzyl bromide, stearoyl chloride, and various reagents for protection and deprotection steps, as well as catalysts and solvents like pyridine, 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine, and palladium on carbon for hydrogenolysis.
