  1. Which contains an unsaturated hyrdocarbongroup? a. oleic acid b. lauric acid

  2. What functional group do you need to have an unsaturated fat? • alkene

  3. At RT (room temperature) which triglyceride mixture is more likely to be a liquid? • One that contains a higher percentage of unsaturated fats? • One that contains a lower percentage of unsaturated fats?

  4. Cell membranes contain phospholipids which can have a high percentage of unsaturation. They need to be flexible. Which type of double bond will make them more flexible? a. cis b. trans

  5. The next 2 slides are part of one question.

  6. Which of the following is not a step in the mechanism of the given reaction?

  7. Biosynthesis of Steroids “Biosynthesis” of steroids involves both addition of carbocation to alkene (as seen in cationic polymerization) and carbocation rearrangements. (The next 10 slides show the mechanistic steps in the conversion of squalene oxide to lanosterol and asks what types of reactions are occurring.)

  8. Epoxide (oxirane) acid catalyzed ring opening

  9. Starting with squalene oxide and ending lanosterol, • How many mechanistic steps involve carbocation rearrangements? • How many mechanistic steps involve p addition to a carbocation?
