Metabolite Identification
Common Namexi-5-Hexyldihydro-2(3H)-furanone
Descriptionxi-5-Hexyldihydro-2(3H)-furanone, also known as 4-hexyl-4-butanolide or gamma-lactone decanoic acid, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as gamma butyrolactones. Gamma butyrolactones are compounds containing a gamma butyrolactone moiety, which consists of an aliphatic five-member ring with four carbon atoms, one oxygen atom, and bears a carboxy group on the carbon adjacent to the oxygen atom. xi-5-Hexyldihydro-2(3H)-furanone has been detected, but not quantified, in fruits. This could make XI-5-hexyldihydro-2(3H)-furanone a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods.
