Linum mucronatum seed oil contains 15% ricinoleic [(+)‐12‐D‐hydroxy‐ cis ‐9‐octadecenoic] acid, previously unknown in the Linaceae. Identification was made by IR, gas liquid chromatography, nuclear magnetic resonance, ozonolysis and mass spectrometry. Other major components of the oil are oleic acid (24%) and linoleic acid (48%).
