Metabolite Identification
Common Name2-Ethyl-2-heptenal
Description2-Ethyl-2-heptenal 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. 2-Ethyl-2-heptenal is a green and sharp tasting compound. 2-Ethyl-2-heptenal has been detected, but not quantified in, fruits and nuts. This could make 2-ethyl-2-heptenal a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on 2-Ethyl-2-heptenal.
