Metabolite Identification
Common Name1-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-2-propanone
Description1-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-2-propanone belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phenylpropanes. These are organic compounds containing a phenylpropane moiety. 1-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-2-propanone is a sweet, anisic, and balsam tasting compound. 1-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-2-propanone is found, on average, in the highest concentration within anises (Pimpinella anisum). 1-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-2-propanone has also been detected, but not quantified in, fennels (Foeniculum vulgare) and herbs and spices. This could make 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-propanone a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on 1-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-2-propanone.
