  <name>Dimethylmatairesinol</name>
  <description>Dimethylmatairesinol is a member of the class of compounds known as dibenzylbutyrolactone lignans. Dibenzylbutyrolactone lignans are lignan compounds containing a 3,4-dibenzyloxolan-2-one moiety. Dimethylmatairesinol is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Dimethylmatairesinol can be found in sesame, which makes dimethylmatairesinol a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. </description>
