✦ Synopsis


The melting behavior of members of newly synthesized series of rac-1,2-diglyeerides with substituted phenyl groups or a benzyl g~oup on the 3-position was investigated with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Solution crystallized samples had single melting temperatures, higher than those of the quenched or annealed specimens. Quenched samples exhibited polymorphic behavior; some melted and rectyst~ll|zed during slow heating. This behavior is similar to that of lecithins and suggests that X-ray diffraction studies of the substituted diglycerides may be useful for understanding membrane structure and functions.
