The molecule is a member of the class of resolvins that is (4Z,8E,10Z,12E,14E,19Z)-docosahexaenoic acid carrying three hydroxy substituents at positions 7, 16 and 17 (the 7S,16R,17S-stereoisomer). It has a role as a human xenobiotic metabolite, an anti-inflammatory agent, an estrogen receptor agonist, an anti-obesity agent and a rat metabolite. It is a resolvin, a triol, a secondary allylic alcohol and a hydroxy polyunsaturated fatty acid. It is a conjugate acid of a resolvin D2(1-).
(4Z,7S,8E,10Z,12E,14E,16R,17S,19Z)-7,16,17-trihydroxydocosa-4,8,10,12,14,19-hexaenoic acid
