| Common Name | Menthanol |
|---|
| Description | Menthanol, also known as dihydro-terpineol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as menthane monoterpenoids. These are monoterpenoids with a structure based on the o-, m-, or p-menthane backbone. P-menthane consists of the cyclohexane ring with a methyl group and a (2-methyl)-propyl group at the 1 and 4 ring position, respectively. The o- and m- menthanes are much rarer, and presumably arise by alkyl migration of p-menthanes. Menthanol is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Menthanol is a sweet, lime, and pine tasting compound. Outside of the human body, Menthanol has been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as citrus, fats and oils, and pine nuts. Menthanol is found in Clinopodium serpyllifolium, Physarum polycephalum and Pinus spp. . This could make menthanol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. |
