title: ORD and CD studies of saturated glycerides.
abstract: A convenient method for transforming 3-acyl-sn-glycerols into 1-acyl-2,3-diacyl'-sn-glycerols, antipodes of 1,2-diacyl'=3-acyl-sn-glycerols, of relatively high optical purity, via the 1,2-dimesyl-3-acyl-sn-glycerols has been worked out. ORD and CD curves of optically active triglycerides and also some mono- and diglycerides have been studied in detail. The curo 200 nm or below. A Cotton effect from the n yeilds  ets* transtition of the ester chromophore was observed at 215-220 nm, which was negative for triglyceritical rotations could be observed in triglycerides with very small differences in chain length, such as 1,2-dilauroyl-3-myristoyl-sn-glycerol.
