Metabolite Identification

Common Name

2,6-Dimethylpyrazine

Description

2,6-Dimethylpyrazine, also known as fema 3273 or 2,5-DMP, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as pyrazines. Pyrazines are compounds containing a pyrazine ring, which is a six-member aromatic heterocycle, that consists of two nitrogen atoms (at positions 1 and 4) and four carbon atoms. Alkylpyrazines are chemical compounds based on pyrazine with different substitution patterns. 2,6-Dimethylpyrazine is a cocoa, roastbeef, and roastednut tasting compound. 2,6-Dimethylpyrazine has been detected, but not quantified, in tea. This could make 2,6-dimethylpyrazine a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Alkylpyrazines are also formed during the cooking of some foods via Maillard reactions. It occurs naturally in asparagus, black or green tea, crispbread, malt, raw shrimp, soya, squid, Swiss cheeses, and wheat bread. It occurs naturally in baked potato, black or green tea, crispbread, French fries, malt, peated malt, raw asparagus, roasted barley, roasted filberts or pecans, squid, wheat bread, wild rice (Zizania aquatica), and wort.
