Chemical Information
FooDB Name2,6,6-Trimethylcyclohex-2-en-1,4-dione
Description2,6,6-trimethyl-2-cyclohexene-1,4-dione, also known as ketoisophorone, is a member of the class of compounds known as cyclohexenones. Cyclohexenones are compounds containing a cylohexenone moiety, which is a six-membered aliphatic ring that carries a ketone and has one endocyclic double bond. 2,6,6-trimethyl-2-cyclohexene-1,4-dione is slightly soluble (in water) and an extremely weak acidic compound (based on its pKa). 2,6,6-trimethyl-2-cyclohexene-1,4-dione is a sweet, leaf, and musty tasting compound found in herbs and spices and tea, which makes 2,6,6-trimethyl-2-cyclohexene-1,4-dione a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. 2,6,6-trimethyl-2-cyclohexene-1,4-dione exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans.
