Abstract
The presence of free fatty acids in Cetraria nivalis and Cladonia gonecha has been demonstrated. Saturated wax esters occur in Cetraria cucullata and C. nivalis, whilst free alkanols were found in C. cucullata. Triglycerides in C. nivalis were detected by their MS fragmentation patterns. Hexa(α-hydroxyisovalerate) is present in C. nivalis and Cl. gonecha, and the presence of ribitol in C. nivalis was demonstrated by identification of its acetonide in an acetone extract.
