Metabolite Identification
Common Name3,5-Di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde
Description3,5-Di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde, also known as BHT-CHO or 4-formyl-2,6-di-tert-butylphenol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as hydroxybenzaldehydes. These are organic aromatic compounds containing a benzene ring carrying an aldehyde group and a hydroxyl group. BHT-CHO is a metabolite of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol (BHA), a synthetic phenolic antioxidant (SPA). SPAs are a family of chemicals used widely in foods, polymers, and cosmetics as radical trapping agents to slow down degradation due to oxidation. Given their widespread use, human exposure is unavoidable and there is public concern regarding environmental contamination by these chemicals. BHT-CHO was detected in human urine (PMID: 31265952 ).
