General description

Ethyl linoleate can undergo auto-oxidation in the presence of the catalyst manganese(II)acetylacetonate.

Application

Ethyl linoleate can be used as a drying agent for alkyd paints. It can also form N2,3-ethenoguanine via reaction with deoxyguanosine.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Ethyl linoleate solated from Oxalis triangularis inhibits forskolin-induced melanogenesis and tyrosinase activity in mouse B16 melanoma cells . This anti-melanogenic effect is mediated by inhibiting cAMP production.
