説明
<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>One of the products formed upon incubation of linolenic acid (<jats:italic>cis</jats:italic>9,12,15‐octadecatrienoic acid) with an extract of flaxseed acetone powder has been characterized as 8‐[2‐(<jats:italic>cis</jats:italic>‐pent‐2′‐enyl)‐3‐oxo‐<jats:italic>cis</jats:italic>‐cyclopent‐4‐enyl]octanoic acid. The cyclopentenone ring structure of this acid is analogous to that of the A‐type prostaglandins produced in mammalian systems.</jats:p>
