Chemical Information
FooDB Name3-Hexanol
Description3-Hexanol, also known as 3-hexyl alcohol or fema 3351, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as secondary alcohols. Secondary alcohols are compounds containing a secondary alcohol functional group, with the general structure HOC(R)(R') (R,R'=alkyl, aryl). 3-Hexanol is an alcoholic, ether, and medicinal tasting compound. 3-Hexanol is found, on average, in the highest concentration within safflowers (Carthamus tinctorius). 3-Hexanol has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as green bell peppers (Capsicum annuum), orange bell peppers (Capsicum annuum), peppers (Capsicum annuum), red bell peppers (Capsicum annuum), and yellow bell peppers (Capsicum annuum). This could make 3-hexanol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on 3-Hexanol.
