Metabolite Identification
Common Name2-Acetyl-5-methylfuran
Description2-Acetyl-5-methylfuran, also known as 2-methyl-5-acetylfuran, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as aryl alkyl ketones. These are ketones have the generic structure RC(=O)R', where R = aryl group and R'=alkyl group. 2-Acetyl-5-methylfuran is a strong, coconut, and coumarin tasting compound. 2-Acetyl-5-methylfuran has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as coffee and coffee products, welsh onions (Allium fistulosum), cereals and cereal products, green tea, and robusta coffees (Coffea canephora). This could make 2-acetyl-5-methylfuran a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a small amount of articles have been published on 2-Acetyl-5-methylfuran.
