TLDR
One of the main compounds formed from 13L-hydroperoxy-9cis,11trans-octadecadienoic acid anaerobically at 100 C in aqueous ethanol was found to bethreo-11-hydroxy-12,13-epoxy-nine-decadecenoic acid.
Abstract
One of the main compounds formed from 13L-hydroperoxy-9cis,11trans-octadecadienoic acid anaerobically at 100 C in aqueous ethanol was found to bethreo-11-hydroxy-12,13-epoxy-9-octadecenoic acid. The major part (ca. 90%) of this compound was formed from the fatty acid hydroperoxide in a reaction involvingcis-addition to the Δ11 double bond of the proximally linked hydroperoxide oxygen and hydroxyl ion or hydroxyl radical from the solvent. A small part (ca. 10%) was formed bycis-addition of the two hydroperoxide oxygens to the Δ11 double bond. 11-Hydroxy-12,13-epoxy-9-octadecenoic acid and its isomer, tentatively identified as 11-hydroxy-9,10-epoxy-12-octadecenoic acid, also were isolated from a sample of autoxidized linoleic acid.

Oxygen radical chemistry of polyunsaturated fatty acids

TL;DR: Although homolytic reactions of PUFA hydroperoxides have received the most attention, hydroper oxides are also susceptible to heterolytic transformations, such as nucleophilic displacement and acid-catalyzed rearrangement.

Chemistry of free radical and singlet oxidation of lipids

TL;DR: Structural studies of primary and secondary products of lipid oxidation are reviewed, further elucidating the structures of complex volatile and non-volatile decomposition products and in the mechanistic pathways for their formation.

Allene oxide cyclase dependence of the wound response and vascular bundle-specific generation of jasmonates in tomato - amplification in wound signalling.

TL;DR: The activation of systemin-dependent AOC and JA biosynthesis occurring only upon substrate generation and the tissue-specific generation of JA suggest an amplification in the wound response of tomato leaves allowing local and rapid defense responses.

Linoleic acid peroxidation--the dominant lipid peroxidation process in low density lipoprotein--and its relationship to chronic diseases.

TL;DR: Modern separation and identification methods enable detailed insight in lipid peroxidation (LPO) processes and it is shown that HODEs, derived from LA, hydroxyoctadecadienoic acids (HODEs), surmount other markers of LPO.

Allene oxide synthases of barley (Hordeum vulgare cv. Salome) : tissue specific regulation in seedling development

TL;DR: The properties of both barley AOSs, their up-regulation of their mRNAs and their tissue specific expression suggest a role during seedling development and jasmonate biosynthesis.

On the Specificity of the Oxygenation of Unsaturated Fatty Acids Catalyzed by Soybean Lipoxidase

TL;DR: The conversion of [13l-3H, 3-14C]8,11,14-eicosatrienoic acid is accompanied by an isotope effect, suggesting that the hydrogen removal occurs as the initial step of the reaction, and only the hydrogen of the l configuration is removed by the enzyme during the conversion.

Steric analysis of hydroperoxides formed by lipoxygenase oxygenation of linoleic acid.

TL;DR: Gas-liquid chromatography allowed separation of the diastereoisomeric derivatives and thus provided a sensitive means for determination of the absolute configuration of the parent unsaturated hydroxy ester.

Enzymatic oxidations of linoleic acid and glycerol-1-monolinoleate in doughs and flour-water suspensions

TL;DR: In this paper, the products formed by enzymatic oxidations of linoleic acid and glycerol-1-monolinoleate, and the products of these oxidations in flour-water suspensions and doughs were studied.
