Glucoerucin

{[(Z)-[5-(methylsulfanyl)-1-{[(2S,3R,4S,5S,6R)-3,4,5-trihydroxy-6-(hydroxymethyl)oxan-2-yl]sulfanyl}pentylidene]amino]oxy}sulfonic acid

C12H23NO9S3 (421.0535)


Glucoerucin belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alkylglucosinolates. These are organic compounds containing a glucosinolate moiety that carries an alkyl chain. Outside of the human body, glucoerucin has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as cabbages and Brassicas. This could make glucoerucin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Glucoerucin is isolated from the seeds of salad rocket (Eruca sativa) and Brussels sprouts (Brassica oleracea var. gemmifera). Isolated from seeds of salad rocket (Eruca sativa) and Brussels sprouts (Brassica oleracea variety gemmifera). Glucoerucin is found in many foods, some of which are brussel sprouts, turnip, brassicas, and common cabbage.
