Examples of Lipids

Fatty Acids Unbranched carboxylic acids with 12–20 carbons Most contain an even number of carbons because they are built from acetic acid units. Melting points increase with increasing molecular weights. Unsaturation greatly lowers the melting point.

Glycerides Fatty acid esters of the triol glycerol Triglycerides are the most common glycerides, and they are used for long-term energy storage in plants and animals. Fats Solid at room temperature Most are derived from mammals. Oils Liquid at room temperature Most are derived from plants or cold-blooded animals.

Melting Points of Fatty Acids Figure: 25_01-03T01.jpg Title: Structures and Melting Points of Some Common Fatty Acids Caption: Saturated fatty acids have melting points that increase gradually with their molecular weight. Notes: The presence of cis double bonds lowers the melting point.

Melting Points The cis double bond in oleic acid lowers the melting point by 66 °C. A cis double bond bends the molecule, so it cannot pack efficiently. A trans double bond has less effect.

Fats and Oils Unsaturated triglycerides have lower melting points because their unsaturated fatty acids do not pack as well in a solid lattice.

Trans Fats Consumers are concerned with the presence of unnatural trans fatty acids in “partially hydrogenated vegetable oil.” The hydrogenation process can produce trans fats, which are associated with an increase in coronary heart disease.

Steroids Steroids are classified as simple lipids because they do not undergo hydrolysis. Common structural features: ═O or —OH at C3 Side chain at C17 May also have a double bond from C5 to either C4 or C6

Cis- and Trans-Decalins In trans-decalin, the two bonds to the second ring are trans to one another, and the hydrogens on the junction are also trans. In cis-decalin, the bonds to the second ring are cis, and the junction hydrogens are also cis.

Cis and Trans Steroids Common steroids may have either a cis or a trans A-B ring junction. The other junctions are normally trans.

Cholesterol Common biological intermediate Probably a precursor to other steroids Side chain at C17 and double bond at C5–C6

Sex Hormones Testosterone is the most potent of the natural male sex hormones, and estradiol is the most potent natural female hormone. Notice that the female sex hormone differs from the male hormone by its aromatic A ring.

Examples of Steroids Cortisol is the major natural hormone of the adrenal cortex. Fluocinolone acetonide is more potent for treating skin inflammation. Beclomethasone is more potent for treating asthma.

Prostaglandins Biochemical regulators more powerful than steroids Cyclopentane ring with two long side chains trans to each other Most have 20 carbon atoms. Derived from arachidonic acid

Biosynthesis of Prostaglandins Biosynthesis of prostaglandins begins with an enzyme-catalyzed oxidative cyclization of arachidonic acid.
