Metabolite Identification
Common Name1,2-Dimethoxybenzene
Description1,2-Dimethoxybenzene, commonly known as veratrole, is a chemical compound with the formula C6H4(OCH3)2. It is the dimethyl ether derived from pyrocatechol. Veratrole is slightly soluble in water, but miscible in all organic solvents. It is a building block for the organic synthesis of other aromatic compounds. Veratrole is relatively electron-rich and thus readily undergoes electrophilic substitution. 1,2-Dimethoxybenzene is found in corn. 1,2-Dimethoxybenzene is a food additive listed in the EAFUS food Additive Database (Jan 2001). 1,2-Dimethoxybenzene is found in raw and cooked foods, e.g. cheeses, grapes and asparagus.
