Summary The eicosenoic acid previously discovered in cameline seed oil (1) was isolated and identified. It melts at 22.5°C. and yields an elaidinated acid melting at 43.5°C. and a dioxy derivative melting at 132°C. By its hydrogenation to arachidic acid and destructive oxidation to undecanedioic acid it was shown to be normal Δ 11 ‐eicosenoic acid‐1 like the acid in jojoba wax.
