  <name>(-)-Mintlactone</name>
  <description>(-)-mintlactone is a member of the class of compounds known as benzenesulfonyl compounds. Benzenesulfonyl compounds are aromatic compounds containing a benzenesulfonyl group, which consists of a monocyclic benzene moiety that carries a sulfonyl group (-)-mintlactone is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). (-)-mintlactone can be found in peppermint, which makes (-)-mintlactone a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. </description>
