title: Biotransformation of linoleic acid by Clavibacter sp. ALA2: heterocyclic and heterobicyclic fatty acids.
abstract: Clavibacter sp. ALA2 transformed linoleic acid into a variety of oxylipins. In previous work, three novel fatty acids were identified, (9Z)-12, 13, 17-trihydroxy-9-octadecenoic acid and two tetrahydrofuran-(di)hydroxy fatty acids. In this report, we confirm the structures of the tetrahydrofuran-(di)hydroxy fatty acids by nuclear magnetic resonance as (9Z)-12-hydroxy-13,16-epoxy-9-octadecenoic acid and (9Z)-7,12-dihydroxy-13,16-epoxy-9-octadecenoic acid. Three other products of the biotransformation were identified as novel heterobicyclic fatty acids, (9Z)-12,17;13, 17-diepoxy-9-octadecenoic acid, (9Z)-7-hydroxy-12,17;13,17-diepoxy-9-octadecenoic acid, and (9Z)-12,17;13,17-diepoxy-16-hydroxy-9-octadecenoic acid. Thus, Clavibacter ALA2 effectively oxidized linoleic acid at C-7, -12, -13, -16, and/or -17.
