Jürgen Jacob | Gernot Grimmer
Positional isomers of decenoic, dodecenoic, and tetradecenoic acids of human adipose tissue have been separated by gas-liquid chromatography and their amounts determined by oxidative cleavage.The following acids have been shown to be present: 7-decenoic, 8-decenoic, 9-decenoic, 7-, 8-, and 9-dodecenoic, and 7-, 8-, 9-, and 11-tetradecenoic acids. Among all isomers of the even-numbered acids from C10 to C18 the cis-9-isomer predominates. With increasing chain length, however, the content of 9-isomer decreases and the number of isomers increases. No 3- or 5-enoic acids could be detected.The origin and biosynthesis of all isomers are discussed.
