Triolein is a symmetrical triglyceride derived from glycerol and three units of the unsaturated fatty acid oleic acid. Most triglycerides are unsymmetrical, being derived from mixtures of fatty acids. Triolein represents 4-30% of olive oil.^[1]

Triolein is also known as glyceryl trioleate and is one of the two components of Lorenzo's oil.
