Cylindrin
(3S,3aS,5aS,5bS,7aR,9S,11aS,13aR,13bS)-9-methoxy-3a,5a,8,8,11a,13a-hexamethyl-3-propan-2-yl-1,2,3,4,5,5b,6,7,7a,9,10,11,13,13b-tetradecahydrocyclopenta[a]chrysene
Cylindrin is a triterpenoid. Cylindrin is a natural product found in Diospyros nigra, Diospyros blancoi, and other organisms with data available. Cylindrin is a member of the class of compounds known as triterpenoids. Triterpenoids are terpene molecules containing six isoprene units. Cylindrin is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Cylindrin can be found in rice, which makes cylindrin a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product.
