An acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine in which the acyl group contains 18 carbons with 3 double bonds, with a final carbon-carbon double bond in the ω−3 or ω−6 positions, i.e. the third or sixth bond from the methyl end of the fatty acid. If R1 is an acyl group and R2 is a hydrogen then the molecule is a 1-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine.
