Ester Bonding (A-Level Biology)

Ester Bonding

Formation of a Triglyceride

Triglycerides are formed via a condensation reaction between one molecule of glycerol and three molecules of fatty acids.
An ester bond is formed. It is important to remember that the glycerol is bonded to each fatty acid chain by a “carbon-oxygen-carbon” or “C-O-C” bond. This bond is known as an ester bond.
Triglycerides can be broken down via hydrolysis. As with everything else we have learned so far, a triglyceride can be broken down into one glycerol and three fatty acids through hydrolysis.
