| Description | Gingerol, also known as 6G [6]-gingerol or (6)-gingerol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as gingerols. Gingerols are compounds containing a gingerol moiety, which is structurally characterized by a 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl group substituted at the C6 carbon atom by a 5-hydroxy-alkane-3-one. Gingerol is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Gingerol is a pungent tasting compound. Outside of the human body, Gingerol is found, on average, in the highest concentration within gingers. Gingerol has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as herbs and spices, nutmegs, cumins, cloves, and pepper (spice). This could make gingerol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. It is normally found as a pungent yellow oil, but also can form a low-melting crystalline solid. Gingerol, a plant polyphenol, is the active constituent of fresh ginger. gingerol is found in Aframomum melegueta and Zingiber officinale. Chemically, gingerol is a relative of capsaicin, the compound that gives chile peppers their spiciness. |
