  <name>4,8-Dimethylquinoline</name>
  <description>4,8-dimethylquinoline belongs to quinolines and derivatives class of compounds. Those are compounds containing a quinoline moiety, which consists of a benzene ring fused to a pyrimidine ring to form benzo[b]azabenzene. 4,8-dimethylquinoline is practically insoluble (in water) and a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa). 4,8-dimethylquinoline can be found in tea, which makes 4,8-dimethylquinoline a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product.</description>
