Triolein(glyceryl trioleate) is a symmetricaltriglyceridederived from glycerol and three units of the unsaturatedfatty acidoleic acid.Most triglycerides are unsymmetrical, being derived from mixtures of fatty acids. Triolein represents 4–30% ofolive oil.[1]
Triolein is also known as glyceryl trioleate and is one of the two components ofLorenzo's oil.[2]
The oxidation of triolein is according to the formula:
- C
57H
104O
6+ 80O
2→ 57CO
2+ 52H
2O
This gives arespiratory quotientof 57/80 or 0.7125. The heat of combustion is 8,389 kcal (35,100 kJ) per mole or 9.474 kcal (39.64 kJ) per gram. Per mole of oxygen it is 104.9 kcal (439 kJ).
