Abstract

Lipids including fatty acids and lipophilic and volatile compounds isolated from leaves, flowers, and fruit of freshly collected Ferula tenuisecta Korovin ex Pavlov (Apiaceae) were studied for the first time. Lipids from leaves included the major (Z,Z,Z)-octadeca-9,12,15-trienoic (linolenic) acid (51.7%) and its homolog identified for the first time, (Z,Z,Z)-hexadeca-7,10,13-trienoic acid (13.5%), which confirmed that this species belonged to a group containing 16:3 acid.
