Common Name

2,6,6-Trimethyl-2-cyclohexene-1,4-dione

Description

2,6,6-Trimethyl-2-cyclohexene-1,4-dione, also known as 4-ketoisophorone or 2-cyclohexen-1,4-dione, 2,6,6-trimethyl, 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. 2,6,6-Trimethyl-2-cyclohexene-1,4-dione has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as black tea, green tea, herbal tea, red tea, and teas (Camellia sinensis). This could make 2,6,6-trimethyl-2-cyclohexene-1,4-dione a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on 2,6,6-Trimethyl-2-cyclohexene-1,4-dione.
