Metabolite Identification

Common Name

3-Ethyl-1,2-benzenediol

Description

3-Ethyl-1,2-benzenediol, also known as 2,3-dihydroxyethylbenzene, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as catechols. Catechols are compounds containing a 1,2-benzenediol moiety. 3-Ethyl-1,2-benzenediol has been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as arabica coffees (Coffea arabica), coffee and coffee products, and robusta coffees (Coffea canephora). This could make 3-ethyl-1,2-benzenediol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. 3-Ethyl-1,2-benzenediol 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 very few articles have been published on 3-Ethyl-1,2-benzenediol.
