Abstract Seed oil of Sterculia colorata is found to contain the following acids (wt %): sterculic (4.9%), malvalic (3.2%), myristic (0.3%), palmitic (29.4%), stearic (1.7%), oleic (56.6%), and linoleic (3.9%). The co‐occurrence of malvalic and sterculic acids was established by gas liquid chromatography of the silver nitrate methanol‐treated esters using S. foetida esters as reference standard.
