Metabolite Identification
Common Name2-Ethyl-4-methyl-1-pentanol
Description2-Ethyl-4-methyl-1-pentanol, also known as 2-ethylisohexanol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as primary alcohols. Primary alcohols are compounds comprising the primary alcohol functional group, with the general structure RCOH (R=alkyl, aryl). 2-Ethyl-4-methyl-1-pentanol has been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as anatidaes (Anatidae), chickens (Gallus gallus), and domestic pigs (Sus scrofa domestica). This could make 2-ethyl-4-methyl-1-pentanol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on 2-Ethyl-4-methyl-1-pentanol.
