  <name>3,5-Dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzaldehyde</name>
  <description>3,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzaldehyde is a member of the class of compounds known as methoxyphenols. Methoxyphenols are compounds containing a methoxy group attached to the benzene ring of a phenol moiety. 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzaldehyde is slightly soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzaldehyde can be found in date, which makes 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzaldehyde a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. </description>
