A method for the synthesis of long chain fatty acids substituted at the to and to-1 positions has been developed. The key step is the isomerization of the triple bond of an alkyn-l-ol from an internal position in the chain to the free terminus with a new, convenient reagent, sodium aminopropylamide

Very long chain fatty acids are isolated from many different natural sources. However their unsaturated and particularly their diunsaturated derivatives with a k n,"+4 pattern are almost exclusively encountered in marine organisms, until we fimnd some derivatives in the botanical family of the Annon
Methyl oleate is converted in high yield to methyl 9(10)-methoxystearate by reaction with methanol in the presence of mercuric acetate followed by demercuration with sodium borohydride. Similar ethoxy-, hydroxy-, acetoxy-, acetylamino-, and hydroxyethoxystearates result when the nucleophilic solvent
Oils containing long chain x-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are highly susceptible to oxidation, limiting their use in food products and drinks. To stabilize these oils, they are usually fortified with natural and/or synthetic antioxi
