title: Identification of the new 10,15-eicosadienoic acid and related acids in the opisthobranch Haminaea templadoi.
abstract: The free fatty acids of the Mediterranean opisthobranch Haminaea templadoi were isolated and characterized, revealing the presence of the new 10,15-eicosadienoic acid [1] and several unusual cis delta 6 monoenoic acids, such as (Z)-6-tetradecenoic acid, (Z)-6-pentadecenoic acid, and (Z)-6-heptadecenoic acid. These results reveal some previously unrecognized fatty acids in mollusks.
