Metabolite Identification
Common Name2,3-Dimethylbenzofuran
Description2,3-Dimethylbenzofuran belongs to the class of organic compounds known as benzofurans. These are organic compounds containing a benzene ring fused to a furan. Furan is a five-membered aromatic ring with four carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. 2,3-Dimethylbenzofuran is a chemical, fennel, and phenolic tasting compound. 2,3-Dimethylbenzofuran has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as coffee and coffee products, red onion, robusta coffees (Coffea canephora), onion-family vegetables, and welsh onions (Allium fistulosum). This could make 2,3-dimethylbenzofuran a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a small amount of articles have been published on 2,3-Dimethylbenzofuran.
