Chemical Information
FooDB Name(S)-Higenamine
DescriptionHigenamine, also known as norcoclaurine or (+-)-demethylcoclaurine, is a member of the class of compounds known as benzylisoquinolines. Benzylisoquinolines are organic compounds containing an isoquinoline to which a benzyl group is attached. Higenamine is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Higenamine is a sweet, fruity, and milky tasting compound found in custard apple and opium poppy, which makes higenamine a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Higenamine (norcoclaurine) is a chemical compound found in a variety of plants including Nandina domestica (fruit), Aconitum carmichaelii (root), Asarum heterotropioides, Galium divaricatum (stem and vine), Annona squamosa, and Nelumbo nucifera (lotus seeds) .
