Organooxygen compounds are organic compounds containing a bond between a carbon atom and an oxygen atom. Methoxyl can be found in coconut and tamarind, which makes methoxyl a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. A methoxy group is the functional group consisting of a methyl group bound to oxygen. This alkoxy group has the formula O–CH3. On a benzene ring, the Hammett equation classifies a methoxy substituent as an electron-donating group .
