2-Hexenal
(2E)-hexenal is a 2-hexenal in which the olefinic double bond has E configuration. It occurs naturally in a wide range of fruits, vegetables, and spices. It has a role as a flavouring agent, an antibacterial agent and a plant metabolite. 2-Hexenal is a natural product found in Lonicera japonica, Origanum sipyleum, and other organisms with data available. 2-Hexenal is a uremic toxin. Uremic toxins can be subdivided into three major groups based upon their chemical and physical characteristics: 1) small, water-soluble, non-protein-bound compounds, such as urea; 2) small, lipid-soluble and/or protein-bound compounds, such as the phenols and 3) larger so-called middle-molecules, such as beta2-microglobulin. Chronic exposure of uremic toxins can lead to a number of conditions including renal damage, chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular disease. 2-Hexenal is found in allspice. 2-Hexenal is used in perfumery and flavourings. 2-Hexenal belongs to the family of Medium-chain Aldehydes. These are An aldehyde with a chain length containing between 6 and 12 carbon atoms. 2-Hexenal (CAS: 505-57-7), also known as 2-hexenaldehyde or 3-propylacrolein, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as medium-chain aldehydes. These are aldehydes with a chain length containing between 6 and 12 carbon atoms. Thus, 2-hexenal is considered to be a fatty aldehyde lipid molecule. Outside of the human body, 2-hexenal is found, on average, in the highest concentration within a few different foods, such as corn, tea, and bilberries. 2-Hexenal has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as common wheat, ginkgo nuts, spearmints, sunflowers, and watermelons. This could make 2-hexenal a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. (E)-2-Hexenal is found in allspice. It is used in perfumery and flavouring.
