Chemical Information
FooDB NameXanthoxylin
DescriptionXanthoxylin, also known as brevifolin, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alkyl-phenylketones. These are aromatic compounds containing a ketone substituted by one alkyl group, and a phenyl group. Xanthoxylin is a borneol and camphor tasting compound. Xanthoxylin has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as fats and oils, german camomiles (Matricaria recutita), herbs and spices, pomegranates (Punica granatum), and sweet oranges (Citrus sinensis). This could make xanthoxylin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on Xanthoxylin.
