Metabolite Identification
Common Name(Z)-3-Hexenal
Description(Z)-3-Hexenal, also known as (3Z)-hexenal, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as medium-chain aldehydes. These are an aldehyde with a chain length containing between 6 and 12 carbon atoms. Thus, (Z)-3-hexenal is considered to be a fatty aldehyde (Z)-3-Hexenal is an apple, fatty, and fruity tasting compound (Z)-3-Hexenal has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as lima beans (Phaseolus lunatus), lambsquarters (Chenopodium album), kombus (Saccharina japonica), arrowroots (Maranta arundinacea), and oregon yampahs (Perideridia oregana). This could make (Z)-3-hexenal a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods (Z)-3-Hexenal is a primary metabolite. Primary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically essential metabolites. They are directly involved in an organism’s growth, development or reproduction. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on (Z)-3-Hexenal.
