Toluene
Toluene, also known as methylbenzene or phenylmethane, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as toluenes. Toluenes are compounds containing a benzene ring which bears a methane group. Toluene is a drug which is used for the removal of ascarids (toxocara canis and toxascaris leonina) and hookworms (ancylostoma caninum and uncinaria stenocephala) and as an aid in removing tapeworms (taenia pisiformis, dipylidium caninum, and echinococcus granulosus) from dogs and cats. Toluene is possibly neutral. Toluene exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Toluene is a sweet and paint tasting compound. Toluene is found, on average, in the highest concentration within a few different foods, such as black walnuts, rosemaries, and corianders and in a lower concentration in milk (cow) and kohlrabis. Toluene has also been detected, but not quantified, in several different foods, such as prickly pears, citrus, yellow bell peppers, apples, and garden tomato (var.). This could make toluene a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Toluene is a potentially toxic compound. Toluene, with regard to humans, has been found to be associated with several diseases such as pervasive developmental disorder not otherwise specified, perillyl alcohol administration for cancer treatment, autism, and asthma; toluene has also been linked to the inborn metabolic disorder celiac disease. Isolated from distilled tolu balsam (Myroxylon balsamum). Minor constituent of lime oil (Citrus aurantifolia) D012997 - Solvents

(±)-1-(4-Methylphenyl)ethanol
(±)-1-(4-methylphenyl)ethanol is a member of the class of compounds known as toluenes. Toluenes are compounds containing a benzene ring which bears a methane group (±)-1-(4-methylphenyl)ethanol is slightly soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). (±)-1-(4-methylphenyl)ethanol can be found in green vegetables, which makes (±)-1-(4-methylphenyl)ethanol a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. xi-1-(4-Methylphenyl)ethanol is found in green vegetables. xi-1-(4-Methylphenyl)ethanol is isolated from rhizomes of Curcuma domestica.
3-Methylphenylacetic acid
3-methylphenylacetic acid is a monocarboxylic acid that is acetic acid in which one of the methyl hydrogens is replaced by a 3-methylphenyl group. It has a role as a fungal xenobiotic metabolite. It is a monocarboxylic acid and a member of benzenes. It derives from an acetic acid. 3-Methylphenylacetic acid belongs to the class of organic compounds known as toluenes. Toluenes are compounds containing a benzene ring which bears a methane group. 3-Methylphenylacetic acid is a hydroaromatic dicarboxylic acids excreted in the urine as metabolite of tolueneacetic acid (PMID 13548876), itself a metabolite of common herbicides (PMID 6660505) [HMDB] m-Tolylacetic acid (3-Methylbenzeneacetic acid) is a hydroaromatic dicarboxylic acids excreted in the urine as metabolite of tolueneacetic acid[1].
