Fails WP:GNG; there is a lack of in-depth secondary source coverage of the compound. TheMagikCow (T) (C) 13:54, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Merge (and redirect) to variegatic acid. Perhaps there is not enough for a stand alone article, but the single sentence "fact" can be merged. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 22:20, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete or merge. I don't see any evidence that this is a notable chemical compound. Merging this and 3,3',4,4'-Tetra-O-methyl variegatic acid methyl ester into a "Derivatives" or "Related compounds" section at variegatic acid is a reasonable option too.
