4,8,12-Trimethyltridecanoic acid: Its isolation and identification from sheep perinephric fat

Add time:07/28/2019    Source:sciencedirect.com

1.1. 4,8,12-Trimethyltridecanoic acid has been isolated and identified from a sample of sheep perinephric fat which earlier yielded phytanic and pristanic acids. This acid had formerly been isolated in the pure state from marine fish oil1 and whale oil2.2.2. The present finding, supported by detailed studies of other investigators in this field, suggests that phytanic, pristanic and 4,8,12-trimethyltridecanoic acid have their origin in dietary phytol, and that 4,8,12-trimethyltridecanoic acid is derived by β-oxidation of pristanic acid which itself is an α-oxidation product of phytanic acid.3.3. In the sample of sheep perinephric fat investigated, the content of 4,8,12-trimethyltridecanoic acid was of the order of 0.1% of the total weight of fatty acids.
