Abstract

Abstract The fatty acid composition of five representatives of the Thalictrum L. genus of the plant family Ranunculaceae has been investigated. The fatty acids include mainly acids with double bonds in the trans ‐5 position (about 60%). Although the main component of the fatty acids is a triene acid ( trans ‐5, cis ‐9, cis ‐12‐octadecatrienoic acid), the oils investigated are semidrying.
