Crystallization, Polymorphism, and Binary Phase Behavior of Model Enantiopure and Racemic Triacylglycerols
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Triacylglycerols (TAG) are the main component in fats and oils and a major component in many food and consumer products. These compounds are always asymmetric (about the sn- 2position), while many diacid and all triacid TAG are chiral. To understand what effect this has on their crystallization behavior, model enantiopure (1,2-bisdecanoyl-3-palmitoyl- sn -glycerol) and racemic (bisdecanoyl-1(3)-palmitoyl- rac -glycerol) TAG were prepared and characterized. In addition, a binary phase diagram was prepared to investigate their phase behavior and the racemate’s crystalline tendency. For the subject compounds, infrared spectroscopy and X-ray powder diffraction data indicate the enantiopure TAG is β′-stable, whereas the racemic mixture is β-stable. In addition, based on the phase diagram, the high-melting form of the racemic mixture is a racemic compound (with a unit cell containing equal quantities of both enantiomers). Racemic (and near-racemic) mixtures also crystallize in a lower-melting metastable conglomerate β′ form. Thus, there are critical differences between the crystallization behavior of enantiopure and racemic TAG, and future investigations of these compounds should reflect these findings.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
