The pinolenic acid is a polyunsaturated fatty acid with three non-conjugated cis - double bonds , the monocarboxylic acid is one of the alkenoic acids . The Trie acid counts - such as its isomer, attached to a C = C double bond is trans -configured columbinic (5 E , 9 Z , 12 Z ) -octadecatrienoic acid, it is often erroneously identified with the pinolenic acid - to the to - or polymethylene interrupted Isolenic Acids (NMI; Non-Methylene-Interrupted or PMI; Poly-Methylene-Interrupted). These also include B. sciadonic acid , coniferonic acid and taxolenic acid or dihomopinolenic acid .

The omega-6 fatty acid is an isomer of the group of natural conjugated linoleic acids belonging (CLN) calendic , Catalpinsäure , punicic and Jacarinsäure .

Pinolenic acid occurs esterified as triacylglyceride in cedar nut oil and pine nut oil , as well as in other seed and leaf lipids, especially in the pine family (Pinaceae), but also in cypress trees (Cupressaceae) and yew trees ( Taxus ). It also occurs in the esters of tall oil .
