Abstract
Coriolic [(R)-13-hydroxy-cis-9,trans-11-octadecadienoic] acid (III, R=Z=H) was isolated as the methyl ester from twoCoriaria seed oils in 66 and 68% yields. The double bonds and hydroxyl group were located by periodate-permanganate oxidation before, and chromic acid oxidation after, hydrogenation of the double bonds. Alternatively the positions of the functional groups were indicated by a convenient micro-ozonolysis-gas-liquid chromatographic procedure. Determination of products from partial hydrolysis of theCoriaria oils with pancreatic lipase (EC 3.1.1.3) revealed a preference of the corioloyl group for the 1,3-positions in triglyceride molecules. The possible significance of coriolic acid as an intermediate in the biogenetic conversion of linoleic acid to conjugated trienoic acids is discussed.
