Metabolite Identification
Common Namep-Mentha-1,3,5,8-tetraene
Descriptionp-Mentha-1,3,5,8-tetraene, also known as 4-isopropenyltoluene, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phenylpropenes. Phenylpropenes are compounds containing a phenylpropene moiety, which consists of a propene substituent bound to a phenyl group. p-Mentha-1,3,5,8-tetraene is a citrus, clove, and gasoline tasting compound. p-Mentha-1,3,5,8-tetraene is found, on average, in the highest concentration within red wine and star anises (Illicium verum). p-Mentha-1,3,5,8-tetraene has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as lemons (Citrus limon), spearmints (Mentha spicata), parsleys (Petroselinum crispum), evergreen blackberries (Rubus laciniatus), and dills (Anethum graveolens). This could make p-mentha-1,3,5,8-tetraene a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on p-Mentha-1,3,5,8-tetraene.
