Chemical Information
FooDB NameN-Heptane
DescriptionN-Heptane, also known as CH3-[CH2]5-CH3 or heptan, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alkanes. These are acyclic branched or unbranched hydrocarbons having the general formula CnH2n+2 , and therefore consisting entirely of hydrogen atoms and saturated carbon atoms. Thus, N-heptane is considered to be a hydrocarbon. N-Heptane is a sweet, alkane, and ethereal tasting compound. N-Heptane has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as cardamoms (Elettaria cardamomum), corns (Zea mays), gingers (Zingiber officinale), and sweet cherries (Prunus avium). This could make N-heptane a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on N-Heptane.
