Chemical Information
FooDB NameDibutyl sulfide
DescriptionDibutyl sulfide belongs to the class of organic compounds known as dialkylthioethers. These are organosulfur compounds containing a thioether group that is substituted by two alkyl groups. Dibutyl sulfide is a geranium, grassy, and green tasting compound. Dibutyl sulfide has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as brassicas, cabbages (Brassica oleracea var. capitata), common mushrooms (Agaricus bisporus), mushrooms, and oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus). This could make dibutyl sulfide a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Dibutyl sulfide.
