Abstract

Two biomarkers, 5,9-dimethyl-6-isopropyl-2-decanone (1) and 4,9,11-trimethyl-6-isopropyl-2-dodecanone (2), were isolated from Chinese Maoming oil shale by silica gel column chromatography and preparative gas chromatography. Their structures were elucidated by using spectroscopic techniques.

Keywords: Chinese Maoming oil shale; biomarkers; botryococcanes.
