Description

white crystalline powder


Solid


16-hydroxyhexadecanoic acid is an omega-hydroxy-long-chain fatty acid that is hexadecanoic acid (also known as palmitic acid) which is substituted at position 16 by a hydroxy group. It is a key monomer of cutin in the plant cuticle. It has a role as a plant metabolite. It derives from a hexadecanoic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a 16-hydroxyhexadecanoate.
