Metabolite Identification
Common NameMethyl 2-propenyl disulfide
DescriptionMethyl 2-propenyl disulfide, also known as 3-(methyldisulfanyl)-1-propene or allyl methyl disulphide, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as allyl sulfur compounds. Allyl sulfur compounds are compounds containing an allylsulfur group, with the general structure H2C(=CH2)CS. Methyl 2-propenyl disulfide is an alliaceous, garlic, and green tasting compound. Methyl 2-propenyl disulfide is found, on average, in the highest concentration within soft-necked garlics (Allium sativum L. var. sativum). Methyl 2-propenyl disulfide has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as allia (Allium), garden onions (Allium cepa), red onion, chives (Allium schoenoprasum), and welsh onions (Allium fistulosum). This could make methyl 2-propenyl disulfide a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Methyl 2-propenyl disulfide 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 Methyl 2-propenyl disulfide.
