Identification
Common Name4-Methylpentadecane
ClassSmall Molecule
Description4-methylpentadecane is a member of the class of compounds known as branched alkanes. Branched alkanes are acyclic branched hydrocarbons having the general formula CnH2n+2. 4-methylpentadecane can be found in a number of food items such as red bell pepper, green bell pepper, pepper (c. frutescens), and orange bell pepper, which makes 4-methylpentadecane a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. 4-methylpentadecane can be found primarily in saliva.
