T. Chou et al., PINNAIC ACID AND TAUROPINNAIC ACID - 2 NOVEL FATTY-ACIDS COMPOSING A 6-AZASPIRO[4.5]DECANE UNIT FROM THE OKINAWAN BIVALVE PINNA-MURICATA, Tetrahedron letters, 37(22), 1996, pp. 3871-3874
Two novel fatty acids with cPLA(2) inhibitory activity, pinnaic acid a
nd tauro-pinnaic acid, were isolated from the Okinawan bivalve Pinna m
uricata. Their structures, including the relative stereochemistry at C
5, C9, C13 and C14, were elucidated by extensive 2D NMR spectroscopic
analysis. Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevier Science Ltd
