Description:Aleuritic acid is a hydroxy fatty acid, which is isolated from the natural resin shellac, secreted by the female lac bug on specific host trees. The compound is primarily obtained through alkaline hydrolysis of shellac, a renewable and biodegradable resource, resulting in a white crystalline material. With its three hydroxyl groups, aleuritic acid exhibits significant reactivity, lending itself to various chemical transformations.
