Bongkrek acid (also known as bongkrekic acid^[1]) is a respiratory toxin more deadly than other mitochondrial poisons such as cyanide or 2,4-dinitrophenol.^[2] There was some dispute regarding the actual structure of bongkrek acid, but this was resolved in 1973, which explains different structures appearing in the literature prior to this date.^[3]

It is produced in fermented coconut contaminated by the bacterium Burkholderia gladioli pathovar cocovenenans. In particular, it has been implicated in deaths resulting from eating coconut-based product known as tempe bongkrèk, which is banned in Indonesia.^[4]

It is highly toxic because it inhibits the ADP/ATP translocase, preventing ATP from leaving the mitochondria and providing energy to the rest of the cell.^[5]
