Common Name

4-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-2-butanone

Description

4-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-2-butanone belongs to the class of organic compounds known as anisoles. These are organic compounds containing a methoxybenzene or a derivative thereof. 4-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-2-butanone is a sweet, absolute, and cassie tasting compound. 4-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-2-butanone has been detected, but not quantified in, herbs and spices. This could make 4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-butanone a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on 4-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-2-butanone.
