This double bond is located between the fourth and fifth carbon atoms of the 18-carbon sphingoid base.
Note the addition of a restraining olefin (double bond) bridge in (g).
It is initiated by free-radical attack upon a lipid, resulting in the removal of a hydrogen atom from a methylene group adjacent to a double bond.
Saturated cyclic compounds contain single bonds only, whereas aromatic rings have an alternating (or conjugated) double bond.
This compound features a rare example of a stable, unhindered carbon-selenium double bond.
They have a long and flexible chain between the onium heads, except for the double bond of mivacurium.
