Chemical Information
FooDB Name2-Methoxy-4-vinylphenol
Description2-Methoxy-4-vinylphenol, also known as 4-hydroxy-3-methoxystyrene or 4-vinylguaiacol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as methoxyphenols. Methoxyphenols are compounds containing a methoxy group attached to the benzene ring of a phenol moiety. 2-Methoxy-4-vinylphenol exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to plants to humans. 2-Methoxy-4-vinylphenol is a clove, curry, and peanut tasting compound. 2-Methoxy-4-vinylphenol is found, on average, in the highest concentration within a few different foods, such as wild carrots (Daucus carota), carrots (Daucus carota ssp. sativus), and red wine and in a lower concentration in white wine, coffees (Coffea), and robusta coffees (Coffea canephora). 2-Methoxy-4-vinylphenol has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as taco, citrus, celery stalks (Apium graveolens var. dulce), evergreen blackberries (Rubus laciniatus), and tortilla chip. This could make 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on 2-Methoxy-4-vinylphenol.
