Chemical Information
FooDB NameEugenyl benzoate
DescriptionEugenyl benzoate belongs to the class of organic compounds known as depsides and depsidones. These are polycyclic compounds that is either a polyphenolic compound composed of two or more monocyclic aromatic units linked by an ester bond (depside), or a compound containing the depsidone structure (depsidone). Eugenyl benzoate is a mild, balsam, and clove tasting compound. Eugenyl benzoate has been detected, but not quantified in, herbs and spices. This could make eugenyl benzoate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a small amount of articles have been published on Eugenyl benzoate.
