Chemical Information
FooDB NameVanillylmandelic acid
DescriptionVanillylmandelic acid, also known as vanillylmandelate or VMA, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as methoxyphenols. Methoxyphenols are compounds containing a methoxy group attached to the benzene ring of a phenol moiety. Vanillylmandelic acid is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Vanillylmandelic acid exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Vanillylmandelic acid is a sweet and vanilla tasting compound. Vanillylmandelic acid, with regard to humans, has been found to be associated with several diseases such as eosinophilic esophagitis, colorectal cancer, and brunner syndrome; vanillylmandelic acid has also been linked to several inborn metabolic disorders including aromatic l-amino acid decarboxylase deficiency and phenylketonuria.
