Common Name2-Dodecenal
Description2-Dodecenal, also known as eryngial or trans-2-dodecenal, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as medium-chain aldehydes. These are an aldehyde with a chain length containing between 6 and 12 carbon atoms. Thus, 2-dodecenal is considered to be a fatty aldehyde lipid molecule. A trans-2,3-unsaturated fatty aldehyde that is (E)-dodec-2-ene in which the allylic methyl group has been oxidised to the corresponding aldehyde. 2-Dodecenal is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. 2-Dodecenal is a sweet, citrus, and fat tasting compound. Outside of the human body, 2-Dodecenal has been detected, but not quantified in, lemons. 2-Dodecenal is found in Santalum album . 2-Dodecenal was first documented in 1964 (PMID: 14194100). This could make 2-dodecenal a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods (PMID: 15012807) (PMID: 15161192) (PMID: 15612802) (PMID: 21062639) (PMID: 24139239) (PMID: 26667677).
