Psilostachyin
Psilostachyin is a member of the class of compounds known as ambrosanolides and secoambrosanolides. Ambrosanolides and secoambrosanolides are sesquiterpene lactones from the Ambrosia family, with a backbone derivative of azuleno[6,5-b]furan-2-one (ambrosanolides) or azuleno[4,5-b]furan-2-one (secoambrosanolides). Psilostachyin is slightly soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Psilostachyin can be found in mugwort, which makes psilostachyin a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. Psilostachyins are bio-active isolates of Ambrosia psilostachya .
Psilostachyin C
Psilostachyin c is a member of the class of compounds known as ambrosanolides and secoambrosanolides. Ambrosanolides and secoambrosanolides are sesquiterpene lactones from the Ambrosia family, with a backbone derivative of azuleno[6,5-b]furan-2-one (ambrosanolides) or azuleno[4,5-b]furan-2-one (secoambrosanolides). Psilostachyin c is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Psilostachyin c can be found in mugwort, which makes psilostachyin c a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product.
11b,13-Dihydrolactucin
11b,13-dihydrolactucin is slightly soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). 11b,13-dihydrolactucin can be found in a number of food items such as endive, chicory, dandelion, and romaine lettuce, which makes 11b,13-dihydrolactucin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
