Chemical Information
FooDB NameHydantoin
DescriptionHydantoin, also known as glycolylurea or 2,4-imidazolidinedione, is a member of the class of compounds known as imidazoles. Imidazoles are compounds containing an imidazole ring, which is an aromatic five-member ring with two nitrogen atoms at positions 1 and 3, and three carbon atoms. Hydantoin is soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Hydantoin can be found in a number of food items such as cabbage, common verbena, black radish, and brazil nut, which makes hydantoin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Hydantoin, or glycolylurea, is a heterocyclic organic compound with the formula CH2C(O)NHC(O)NH. It is a colorless solid that arises from the reaction of glycolic acid and urea. It is an oxidized derivative of imidazolidine. In a more general sense, hydantoins can refer to a groups and a class of compounds with the same ring structure as the parent. For example, phenytoin (mentioned below) has two phenyl groups substituted onto the number 5 carbon in a hydantoin molecule .
