Metabolite Identification
Common Name3,5,5-Trimethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one
Description3,5,5-Trimethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one, also known as isoacetophorone or isoforone, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as cyclohexenones. Cyclohexenones are compounds containing a cylohexenone moiety, which is a six-membered aliphatic ring that carries a ketone and has one endocyclic double bond. 3,5,5-Trimethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one is a sweet, camphor, and camphoraceous tasting compound. 3,5,5-Trimethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one is found, on average, in the highest concentration within kohlrabis (Brassica oleracea var. gongylodes). 3,5,5-Trimethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as cherry tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum var. cerasiforme), white mustards (Sinapis alba), garden tomato (var.), herbs and spices, and saffrons (Crocus sativus). This could make 3,5,5-trimethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. 3,5,5-Trimethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one is a secondary metabolite. Secondary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically non-essential metabolites that may serve a role as defense or signalling molecules. In some cases they are simply molecules that arise from the incomplete metabolism of other secondary metabolites. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on 3,5,5-Trimethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one.
