Chemical Information
FooDB Name2-Methyl-3-(methylthio)furan
Description2-Methyl-3-(methylthio)furan belongs to the class of organic compounds known as aryl thioethers. These are organosulfur compounds containing a thioether group that is substituted by an aryl group. 2-Methyl-3-(methylthio)furan is a beefy, cheese, and coffee tasting compound. 2-Methyl-3-(methylthio)furan has been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as arabica coffees (Coffea arabica), coffee and coffee products, and robusta coffees (Coffea canephora). This could make 2-methyl-3-(methylthio)furan a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on 2-Methyl-3-(methylthio)furan.
