Pyranopyridines are polycyclic aromatic compounds containing a pyran ring fused to a pyridine ring. Gentianine is soluble (in water) and a strong basic compound (based on its pKa). Gentianine is a bitter tasting compound found in fenugreek, which makes gentianine a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-5-vinylnicotinic acid gamma-lactone 5-ethenyl-3,4-dihydro-1H-pyrano[3,4-c]pyridin-1-one From schultesia guianensis malme (mata-zombando) Gencianina Gentianine C10H9NO2 175.184 175.063328537 5-ethenyl-1H,3H,4H-pyrano[3,4-c]pyridin-1-one gentianine 439-89-4 C=CC1=C2CCOC(=O)C2=CN=C1 InChI=1S/C10H9NO2/c1-2-7-5-11-6-9-8(7)3-4-13-10(9)12/h2,5-6H,1,3-4H2 DFNZYFAJQPLJFI-UHFFFAOYSA-N belongs to the class of organic compounds known as pyranopyridines.
