Pinolidoxin, also known as lethaloxin, is a member of the class of compounds known as oxocins. Oxocins are compounds containing an oxocin ring, which is a eight-member unsaturated aromatic ring containing one oxygen atom and seven carbon atoms. Pinolidoxin is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Pinolidoxin can be found in common pea, which makes pinolidoxin a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product.
