Pent-1-en-2-ol
Pent-1-en-2-ol, also known as 1-penten-2-ol, is a member of the class of compounds known as enols. Enols are compounds containing the enol functional group, with the structure HO(R)C=CR. Ketones that have one or more alpha-hydrogen atoms undergo keto-enol tautomerization, the tautomer being an enol. Pent-1-en-2-ol is soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Pent-1-en-2-ol can be found in corn, which makes pent-1-en-2-ol a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product.
Eicosen-1-ol
Eicosen-1-ol is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Eicosen-1-ol can be found in garden onion, which makes eicosen-1-ol a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product.
