Abstract
2 C18 isoprenoid ketones, hexahydrofarnesylacetone (1) and farnesylacetone (2) have been identified for the first time in lipid extracts from the androgenic glands of the male crab Carcinus maenas, using coupled gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The 2 compounds prepared by synthesis, are biologically active, inhibiting the incorporation of 3H-leucine in Crustaceans ovaries subcultures.Entities:
