  <name>Vanillyl octanamide</name>
  <description>Vanillyl octanamide is a member of the class of compounds known as methoxyphenols. Methoxyphenols are compounds containing a methoxy group attached to the benzene ring of a phenol moiety. Vanillyl octanamide is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Vanillyl octanamide can be found in a number of food items such as green bell pepper, pepper (c. annuum), red bell pepper, and orange bell pepper, which makes vanillyl octanamide a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. </description>
