Monoacyl glycerol
IUPAC 名称
1,3-dihydroxypropan-2-yl formate
描述
Monoacyl glycerol is a member of the class of compounds known as 2-monoacylglycerols. 2-monoacylglycerols are monoacylglycerols containing a glycerol acylated at the 2-position. Monoacyl glycerol is soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Monoacyl glycerol can be found in fig, which makes monoacyl glycerol a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. Monoglycerides (also: acylglycerols or monoacylglycerols) are a class of glycerides which are composed of a molecule of glycerol linked to a fatty acid via an ester bond. As glycerol contains both primary and secondary alcohol groups two different types of monoglycerides may be formed; 1-monoacylglycerols where the fatty acid is attached to a primary alcohol, or a 2-monoacylglycerols where the fatty acid is attached to the secondary alcohol .
