Metabolite Identification
Common NameGlycerol 1-hexadecanoate
DescriptionGlycerol 1-hexadecanoate, also known as alpha-monopalmitin or 1-palmitoylglycerol, is a member of the class of compounds known as 1-monoacylglycerols. 1-Monoacylglycerols are monoacylglycerols containing a glycerol acylated at the 1-position. Thus, glycerol 1-hexadecanoate is considered to be a monoradylglycerol lipid molecule. Glycerol 1-hexadecanoate is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Glycerol 1-hexadecanoate can be found in fats and oils, which makes glycerol 1-hexadecanoate a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. Glycerol 1-hexadecanoate can be found in feces and sweat. Glycerol 1-hexadecanoate exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Glycerol 1-hexadecanoate is a minor component of olive oil and other vegetable oil.
