On the syntheses of triacylglycerols from branched saturated fatty acids.
A number of triacylglycerols with branched acyl groups were prepared via 1,2-isopropylidene glycerol for the purpose of studying three different physical properties: gel point, refractive index, and density. The monoacid triacylglycerols were prepared either via the corresponding acids or the acyl chlorides.
