ABSTRACT
Trihydroxy fatty acids are oxidative metabolites of polyunsaturated fatty acids isolated from plants, bacteria, fungi, and microalgae and have a variety of biological activities. In this study, a new trihydroxy fatty acid, okeanic acid-A (1), was isolated together with malyngic acid (2) and 15,16-dihydromalyngic acid (3) from the cyanobacterium Okeania hirsuta collected in Okinawa, Japan. The planar structure of 1 was elucidated by detailed analyses using high-resolution ESI-MS and 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy. The absolute configurations of the hydroxy groups in 1 were determined unambiguously by chemical derivatisation and a modified Mosher's method. These cyanobacterial trihydroxy fatty acids (1-3) have identical configurations at their respective trihydroxy parts. Okeanic acid-A (1) showed mild growth-inhibitory activity against the marine diatom Nitzschia amabilis.
