| Common Name | (±)-p-Menth-1-en-4-yl acetate |
|---|
| Description | (±)-P-Menth-1-en-4-yl acetate 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 (±)-p-Menth-1-en-4-yl acetate is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Outside of the human body, (±)-p-Menth-1-en-4-yl acetate is found, on average, in the highest concentration within nutmegs and rosemaries (±)-p-Menth-1-en-4-yl acetate has also been detected, but not quantified in, sweet marjorams and winter savories. (±)-p-Menth-1-en-4-yl acetate is found in Achillea abrotanoides, Caesulia axillaris, Curcuma pierreana, Helichrysum italicum, Mesosphaerum suaveolens, Minthostachys andina, Persea americana, Thuja occidentalis, Vitex negundo and Zanthoxylum schinifolium. This could make (±)-p-menth-1-en-4-yl acetate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. |
