Acetovanillone
Acetovanillone, also known as 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyacetophenone or acetoguaiacon, is a member of the class of compounds known as alkyl-phenylketones. Alkyl-phenylketones are aromatic compounds containing a ketone substituted by one alkyl group, and a phenyl group. Acetovanillone is slightly soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Acetovanillone is a faint, sweet, and vanillin tasting compound found in corn and garden onion, which makes acetovanillone a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Acetovanillone may be a unique S.cerevisiae (yeast) metabolite.
