Identification
Common Namealpha-CEHC
ClassSmall Molecule
DescriptionAlpha-Cehc, also known as Α-cehc, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 1-benzopyrans. These are organic aromatic compounds that 1-benzopyran, a bicyclic compound made up of a benzene ring fused to a pyran, so that the oxygen atom is at the 1-position. Alpha-Cehc is possibly soluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Alpha-Cehc exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans.
