Chemical Information
FooDB Name3-Hydroxy-4,5-dimethyl-2(5H)-furanone
Description3-Hydroxy-4,5-dimethyl-2(5H)-furanone belongs to the class of organic compounds known as butenolides. These are dihydrofurans with a carbonyl group at the C2 carbon atom. 3-Hydroxy-4,5-dimethyl-2(5H)-furanone is a strong, extremely sweet, and burnt tasting compound. 3-Hydroxy-4,5-dimethyl-2(5H)-furanone has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as arabica coffees (Coffea arabica), robusta coffees (Coffea canephora), fenugreeks (Trigonella foenum-graecum), herbs and spices, and evergreen blackberries (Rubus laciniatus). This could make 3-hydroxy-4,5-dimethyl-2(5H)-furanone a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. 3-Hydroxy-4,5-dimethyl-2(5H)-furanone, with regard to humans, has been linked to the inborn metabolic disorder maple syrup urine disease. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on 3-Hydroxy-4,5-dimethyl-2(5H)-furanone.
