The brown alga Notheia anomala has yielded a C19 lipid diol, (6S,7S,9R,10R)-6,9-epoxynonadec-18-ene-7,10-diol, as the major component. The structure, assigned on the basis of spectral data, was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray analysis, which also established the relative stereochemistry. The absolute configuration was determined on the monoacetate by the Horeau method.
