Roccellic acid is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C17H32O4. It was first described in the 19th century as a chemical constituent of the lichen Roccella tinctoria . [1] It has since been identified in a variety of other lichens including Roccella montagnei , [2] Lobodirina cerebriformes , [3] Lobodirina mahuiana , [4] and Dirina lutosa , [5] among others.

Several laboratory syntheses of roccellic acid have been reported. [6] [7]

Toensbergianic acid is a stereoisomer of roccellic acid [8] and angardianic acid has been reported to be closely related, but its exact chemical structure is undetermined. [9]
