Chemical Information
FooDB NameMethyl propyl disulfide
DescriptionMethyl propyl disulfide belongs to the class of organic compounds known as dialkyldisulfides. These are organic compounds containing a disulfide group R-SS-R' where R and R' are both alkyl groups. Methyl propyl disulfide is a mustard, onion, and radish tasting compound. Methyl propyl disulfide is found, on average, in the highest concentration within soft-necked garlics (Allium sativum L. var. sativum). Methyl propyl disulfide has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as garden onions (Allium cepa), nuts, allia (Allium), onion-family vegetables, and garden tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum). This could make methyl propyl disulfide a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on Methyl propyl disulfide.
