Metabolite Identification
Common Name2,3-dihydroxy-3-methylvalerate
Description2,3-dihydroxy-3-methylvalerate is a member of the class of compounds known as hydroxy fatty acids. Hydroxy fatty acids are fatty acids in which the chain bears a hydroxyl group. Thus, 2,3-dihydroxy-3-methylvalerate is considered to be a fatty acid lipid molecule. 2,3-dihydroxy-3-methylvalerate is soluble (in water) and a weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). 2,3-dihydroxy-3-methylvalerate can be found in a number of food items such as jostaberry, spelt, roman camomile, and common pea, which makes 2,3-dihydroxy-3-methylvalerate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
