Metabolite Identification
Common NameLignocerane
DescriptionLignocerane, also known as CH3-[CH2]22-CH3 or N-tetracosane, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alkanes. These are acyclic branched or unbranched hydrocarbons having the general formula CnH2n+2 , and therefore consisting entirely of hydrogen atoms and saturated carbon atoms. Lignocerane is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral. Thus, lignocerane is considered to be a hydrocarbon lipid molecule. Lignocerane has been detected, but not quantified, in several different foods, such as lindens, citrus, sunflowers, allspices, and papaya.
