Chemical Information
FooDB Name1,4-Benzoquinone
DescriptionQuinone, also known as benzoquinone or 1,4-benzochinon, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as p-benzoquinones. These are benzoquinones where the two C=O groups are attached at the 1- and 4-positions, respectively. Quinone is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Quinone exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Quinone has been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as anises, barley, and olives. This could make quinone a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Quinone is a potentially toxic compound.
