Guaiacol
O-methoxyphenol appears as colorless to amber crystals or liquid. Density (of solid) 1.129 g / cm3. Solidifies at 28 °C (82.4 °F), but may remain liquid for a long time even at a much lower temperature. Slightly water soluble. Soluble in aqueous sodium hydroxide. Used medicinally as an expectorant. Used, because of its anti-oxidant properties, as an anti-skinning agent for paints. Guaiacol is a monomethoxybenzene that consists of phenol with a methoxy substituent at the ortho position. It has a role as an expectorant, a disinfectant, a plant metabolite and an EC 1.1.1.25 (shikimate dehydrogenase) inhibitor. It is functionally related to a catechol. Guaiacol is an agent thought to have disinfectant properties and used as an expectorant. Guaiacol is a phenolic natural product first isolated from Guaiac resin and the oxidation of lignin. Guaiacol is also present in wood smoke, as a product of pyrolysis of lignin. Guaiacol has been found in the urine of patients with neuroblastoma and pheochromocytoma. Guaiacol is a natural product found in Verbascum lychnitis, Castanopsis cuspidata, and other organisms with data available. Guaiacol is a phenolic compound with a methoxy group and is the monomethyl ether of catechol. Guaiacol is readily oxidized by the heme iron of peroxidases including the peroxidase of cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes. It therefore serves as a reducing co-substrate for COX reactions. Guaiacol is a phenolic natural product first isolated from Guaiac resin and the oxidation of lignin. It is a yellowish aromatic oil that is now commonly derived from guaiacum or wood creosote. It is used medicinally as an expectorant, antiseptic, and local anesthetic. Guaiacol is used in traditional dental pulp sedation, and has the property of inducing cell proliferation; guaiacol is a potent scavenger of reactive oxygen radicals and its radical scavenging activity may be associated with its effect on cell proliferation. Guaiacol is also used in the preparation of synthetic vanillin. Guaiacol is also present in wood smoke, as a product of pyrolysis of lignin. Guaiacol has been found in the urine of patients with neuroblastoma and pheochromocytoma. (A3556, A3559). 2-methoxyphenol is a metabolite found in or produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Flavouring ingredient. 2-Methoxyphenol is found in many foods, some of which are milk and milk products, asparagus, pepper (c. annuum), and wild celery.

Quinone
Quinone is also called 1,4-benzoquinone or cyclohexadienedione. Quinones are oxidized derivatives of aromatic compounds and are often readily made from reactive aromatic compounds with electron-donating substituents such as phenols and catechols, which increase the nucleophilicity of the ring and contributes to the large redox potential needed to break aromaticity. Derivatives of quinones are common constituents of biologically relevant molecules. Some serve as electron acceptors in electron transport chains such as those in photosynthesis (plastoquinone, phylloquinone), and aerobic respiration (ubiquinone). Quinone is a common constituent of biologically relevant molecules (e.g. Vitamin K1 is phylloquinone). A natural example of quinones as oxidizing agents is the spray of bombardier beetles. Hydroquinone is reacted with hydrogen peroxide to produce a fiery blast of steam, a strong deterent in the animal world. 1,4-Benzoquinone, commonly known as para-quinone or quinone, is a chemical compound with the formula C6H4O2. 1,4-Benzoquinone is found in barley, olive, and anise.

2-Pentanone
2-Pentanone, also known as ethyl acetone or fema 2842, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as ketones. These are organic compounds in which a carbonyl group is bonded to two carbon atoms R2C=O (neither R may be a hydrogen atom). Ketones that have one or more alpha-hydrogen atoms undergo keto-enol tautomerization, the tautomer being an enol. 2-Pentanone is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral. Thus, 2-pentanone is considered to be an oxygenated hydrocarbon lipid molecule. 2-Pentanone is a sweet, alcohol, and banana tasting compound. 2-Pentanone is found, on average, in the highest concentration within milk (cow). 2-Pentanone has also been detected, but not quantified, in several different foods, such as fats and oils, corns, apples, evergreen blackberries, and fruits. This could make 2-pentanone a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. 2-Pentanone, with regard to humans, has been found to be associated with several diseases such as ulcerative colitis, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, and crohns disease; 2-pentanone has also been linked to the inborn metabolic disorder celiac disease. Isolated from soya oil (Glycine max), pineapple and a few other plant sources
2-Pentadecanone
2-Pentadecanone is found in cereals and cereal products. 2-Pentadecanone is isolated from hop (Humulus lupulus), coconut (Cocos nucifera) and other oils. Also found in American cranberry, feijoa fruit, quince, asparagus, ginger, wheat bread, soybean, cooked rice and cheeses. 2-Pentadecanone is a flavouring ingredien Isolated from hop (Humulus lupulus), coconut (Cocos nucifera) and other oilsand is also found in American cranberry, feijoa fruit, quince, asparagus, ginger, wheat bread, soybean, cooked rice and cheeses.

1-Pentadecene
1-Pentadecene, also known as pentadec-1-ene, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbons. These are aliphatic Hydrocarbons that contains one or more unsaturated carbon atoms. 1-Pentadecene is an unbranched fifteen-carbon alkene with one double bond between C-1 and C-2. These compounds contain one or more double or triple bonds. Thus, 1-pentadecene is considered to be a hydrocarbon lipid molecule. 1-Pentadecene is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral. 1-Pentadecene is found, on average, in the highest concentration within safflowers. 1-Pentadecene has also been detected, but not quantified, in burdocks and watermelons. This could make 1-pentadecene a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Occurs in beef and oakmoss oleoresin. 1-Pentadecene is found in many foods, some of which are animal foods, burdock, safflower, and watermelon.
