Metabolite Identification
Common NameHexacosane
DescriptionHexacosane, also known as CH3-[CH2]24-CH3, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alkanes. These are acyclic branched or unbranched hydrocarbons having the general formula CnH2n+2 , and therefore consisting entirely of hydrogen atoms and saturated carbon atoms. Thus, hexacosane is considered to be a hydrocarbon lipid molecule. Hexacosane is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral. Hexacosane has been detected, but not quantified, in several different foods, such as peachs, sunflowers, parsnips, coconuts, and papaya. This could make hexacosane a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. A straight-chain alkane comprising of 26 carbon atoms.
