Metabolite Identification
Common Name2-Methylpropyl propanoate
Description2-Methylpropyl propanoate belongs to the class of organic compounds known as carboxylic acid esters. These are carboxylic acid derivatives in which the carbon atom from the carbonyl group is attached to an alkyl or an aryl moiety through an oxygen atom (forming an ester group). 2-Methylpropyl propanoate is a sweet, banana, and bitter tasting compound. 2-Methylpropyl propanoate has been detected, but not quantified in, apples (Malus pumila). This could make 2-methylpropyl propanoate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a small amount of articles have been published on 2-Methylpropyl propanoate.
