Ficus benghalensis is a rich source of oil containing unusual fatty acids which could be used for industrial utilization. F. benghalensis seed oil is found to contain vernolic acid (8.2%), malvalic acid (3.7%) and sterculic acid (1.6%) along with the other normal fatty acids like lauric acid (1.5%), myristic acid (1.3%), palmitic acid (35.2%), stearic acid (4.2%), oleic acid (20.3%), linoleic acid (15.4%) and linolenic acid (8.7%). Vernolic, malvalic, sterculic and other normal fatty acids have been identified and characterized by UV, FTIR, 1H NMR, MS, TLC, GLC-techniques and chemical degradations.
