Chemical Information
FooDB Name4-Hexen-3-one
Description4-Hexen-3-one, also known as (e)-2-hexen-4-one or fema 3352, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as enones. Enones are compounds containing the enone functional group, with the structure RC(=O)CR'. 4-Hexen-3-one is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). 4-Hexen-3-one is an ethereal, green, and metallic tasting compound. 4-Hexen-3-one has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as japanese pumpkins, jutes, plains prickly pears, pomegranates, and naranjilla. This could make 4-hexen-3-one a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods.
