Vulgarol

2,5-dihydroxy-3,6-diphenylcyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-dione

C18H12O4 (292.0735552)


Vulgarol, also known as 2,5-dihydroxy-3,6-diphenyl-1,4-benzoquinone, is a member of the class of compounds known as P-benzoquinones. P-benzoquinones are benzoquinones where the two C=O groups are attached at the 1- and 4-positions, respectively. Vulgarol is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Vulgarol can be found in mugwort, which makes vulgarol a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product.
