Consider the fatty acid. A carboxylate salt is attached to a 19 carbon chain, where double bonds are present between carbons 5 and 6, between carbons 8 and 9, between carbons 11 and 12, and between 14 and 15. The carboxylate carbon is carbon 1. All double bonds are cis. Which of the designations are accurate for the fatty acid

ω-3 fatty acid and 19:4(Δ5,8,11,14)

Explanation:

From the image attached below:

We can see the structure of the delta nomenclature showing the numbers of carbons, numbers of double bonds, and the locations of the double bonds in the structure of the carboxylate salt.

Also, we can see the structure of the fatty acid where; the location of the first double bond from the methyl end is shown.

Hence, the designation which are accurate for these structures are:

ω-3 fatty acid and 19:4(Δ5,8,11,14)
