Methyl 2-furoate

Furan-alpha-carboxylic acid methyl ester

C6H6O3 (126.0316926)


Methyl 2-furoate, also known as fema 2703 or methyl pyromucate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as furoic acid esters. These are ester derivatives of furoic acid. Methyl 2-furoate is a sweet, fruity, and fungal tasting compound. Methyl 2-furoate has been detected, but not quantified, in several different foods, such as fruits, coffee and coffee products, nuts, green vegetables, and cocoa and cocoa products. This could make methyl 2-furoate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. It is used in food flavouring. Found in cranberries, guava fruits, raisins and other fruitsand is also present in baked potato, roasted filberts, roasted peanut, tomatoes, coffee, cocoa, okra (Hibiscus esculentus) and other foodstuffs. Methyl 2-furoate (Methyl furan-2-carboxylate) is a building block in chemical synthesis. A flavoring agent in food. Found in cranberries, guava fruits, raisins and other fruits. Also present in baked potato, roasted filberts, roasted peanut, tomatoes, coffee, cocoa, okra, etc. Methyl 2-furoate (Methyl furan-2-carboxylate) is a building block in chemical synthesis.
