16 Comae Berenices is a single[9] star in the northern constellation of Coma Berenices. 16 Comae Berenices is the Flamsteed designation. It is a member of the Coma Star Cluster and is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.96.[2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 11.7 mas,[1] it is located about 279 light years away.

This is a chemically-peculiar A-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of A4 V.[3] It displays an infrared excess, suggesting the presence of an orbiting debris disk at a mean distance of 18.2 AU with a temperature of 180 K.[5] 16 Com has 2.54[3] times the mass of the Sun and 3.71[5] times the Sun's radius. The star is 310[6] million years old with a projected rotational velocity of 80 km/s.[3] It is radiating 67 times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 8,299 K.[3]
