Chemical Information
FooDB Name2-Ethylpyridine
Description2-ethylpyridine belongs to pyridines and derivatives class of compounds. Those are compounds containing a pyridine ring, which is a six-member aromatic heterocycle which consists of one nitrogen atom and five carbon atoms. 2-ethylpyridine is soluble (in water) and a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa). 2-ethylpyridine is a grassy and green tasting compound found in tea, which makes 2-ethylpyridine a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product.
