title: Composition of novel triesters from the skin of the rhino mutant mouse.
abstract: Composition of two novel triesters, derived from the skin of the rhino mutant mouse, is described. Chemical and spectroscopic analysis of the products of pancreatic hydrolysis of the triesters showed that these are comprised predominantly of isomer I (92.7 mole %). The syntheses of two reference compounds, I-O-hexadecanoyl-2-[(14-hexadecanoyloxy)O-tetradecanoyl] 1,2-hexadecanediol (Ia) and 2-O-hexadecanoyl-1-[(14-hexadecanoyloxy)-O-tetradecanoyl]-1,2-hexadecanediol (IIa), corresponding in their structures to isomers I and II of the triester, wax have also been described.
