Abstract

The structures of fatty monohydroxy acids of the lipids of the seeds ofGaleopsis bifida Boenn. have been studied by the methods of chromatographic, spectral, and chemical analysis. (31) Acids with chain lengths of from 14 to 20 carbon atoms, with from 0 to 3 double bonds, and with the hydrolyls in positions characteristic for the products of the direct hydroxylation and the lipoxygenase and photosensitized oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids were detected. Of them, the 13-OH-9Z, 11E-17:2, the 15-OH-9, 12-18:2, the 16-OH-9, 12-18:2, and 17-OH-11, 14-20:2 acids were new, while this is the first time that the 15-OH-9Z, 12Z, 16E-18:3 acid has been described as a natural compound. The behavior of the TMS derivatives of the hydroxy acids on a polyester phase in GLC is discussed.
