| hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids | Eicosatetraenoic acids substituted in any position by one or more hydroxy groups. They are important intermediates in a series of biosynthetic processes leading from arachidonic acid to a number of biologically active compounds such as prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and leukotrienes.

| sialic acids | A group of naturally occurring n-and o-acyl derivatives of the deoxyamino sugar neuraminic acid. They are ubiquitously distributed in many tissues. (12 Dec 1998) |
| naphthaleneacetic acids | Naphthalene derivatives containing the -ch2cco2h radical at the 1-position, the 2-position, or both. Compounds are used as plant growth regulators to delay sprouting, exert weed control, thin fruit, etc. (12 Dec 1998) |
| stearic acids | A group of compounds that are derivatives of octadecanoic acid which is one of the most abundant fatty acids found in animal lipids. (12 Dec 1998) |
| nicotinic acids | 2-, 3-, or 4-pyridinecarboxylic acids. Pyridine derivatives substituted with a carboxy group at the 2-, 3-, or 4-position. The 3-carboxy derivative (niacin) is active as a vitamin. (12 Dec 1998) |
| succinic acids | A class of dicarboxylic acids with the general structure of butanedioic acid (succinic acid). They are used in perfumery and as a chemical intermediate in medicine. (12 Dec 1998) |
