Chemical Information
FooDB NameTaraxinic acid
DescriptionTaraxinic acid, also known as taraxinate, belongs to germacranolides and derivatives class of compounds. Those are sesquiterpene lactones with a structure based on the germacranolide skeleton, characterized by a gamma lactone fused to a 1,7-dimethylcyclodec-1-ene moiety. Taraxinic acid is practically insoluble (in water) and a weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Taraxinic acid can be found in dandelion, which makes taraxinic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product.
