Chemical Information
FooDB NameTetrahydro-2-furanmethanol
DescriptionTetrahydro-2-furanmethanol, also known as tetrahydro-2-furfuryl alcohol or tetrahydrofuryl carbinol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as tetrahydrofurans. These are heterocyclic compounds containing a saturated, aliphatic, five-membered ring where a carbon is replaced by an oxygen. Tetrahydro-2-furanmethanol is a faint, caramel, and cauliflower tasting compound. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on Tetrahydro-2-furanmethanol.
