Chemical Information
FooDB Name3-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)propanoic acid
Description3-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)propanoic acid, also known as melilotic acid or melilotate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phenylpropanoic acids. Phenylpropanoic acids are compounds with a structure containing a benzene ring conjugated to a propanoic acid. 3-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)propanoic acid exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. 3-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)propanoic acid has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as bilberries (Vaccinium myrtillus), chinese cinnamons (Cinnamomum aromaticum), herbs and spices, pulses, and red beetroots (Beta vulgaris var. rubra). This could make 3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)propanoic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on 3-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)propanoic acid.
