(+)‐Erythro‐2,3‐dihydroxyhexacosanoic acid was found in a mixture of cerebrins (ceramides containing sphingosines and phytosphingosines) from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae . The structure was deduced on the basis of elemental analyses, gas liquid chromatography and thin layer chromatography of the appropriate derivatives of the acid and its oxidation products.
