(9z,11e,14z)-(13s)-hydroperoxyoctadeca-(9,11,14)-trienoate is practically insoluble (in water) and a weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). (9z,11e,14z)-(13s)-hydroperoxyoctadeca-(9,11,14)-trienoate can be found in a number of food items such as wasabi, european chestnut, savoy cabbage, and prunus (cherry, plum), which makes (9z,11e,14z)-(13s)-hydroperoxyoctadeca-(9,11,14)-trienoate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Belongs to the class of organic compounds known as lineolic acids and derivatives. These are derivatives of lineolic acid. Lineolic acid is a polyunsaturated omega-6 18 carbon long fatty acid, with two CC double bonds at the 9- and 12-positions.
