| acetylcarnitine | An O-acyl-L-carnitine where the acyl group specified is acetyl. It facilitates movement of acetyl-CoA into the matrices of mammalian mitochondria during the oxidation of fatty acids. | O-acetyl-L-carnitine |
| butyrylcarnitine | An optically active form of O-butanoylcarnitine having L-configuration. | O-butanoyl-L-carnitine |
| isobutyryl-1-carnitine | An optically active form of O-isobutyrylcarnitine having (R)-configuration. | O-isobutyryl-L-carnitine |
| lauroylcarnitine | An O-acyl-L-carnitine in which the acyl group is specified as lauroyl (dodecanoyl). | O-lauroyl-L-carnitine |
| octanoylcarnitine | The L-enantiomer of an O-octanoylcarnitine. | O-octanoyl-L-carnitine |
| palmitoylcarnitine | An O-acyl-L-carnitine in which the acyl group is specified as palmitoyl (hexadecanoyl). | O-palmitoyl-L-carnitine |
