Common Name4α-hydroxymethyl-4β-methyl-5α-cholesta-8,24-dien-3β-ol
ClassSmall Molecule
Description4α-hydroxymethyl-4β-methyl-5α-cholesta-8,24-dien-3β-ol is a member of the class of compounds known as triterpenoids. Triterpenoids are terpene molecules containing six isoprene units. 4α-hydroxymethyl-4β-methyl-5α-cholesta-8,24-dien-3β-ol is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). 4α-hydroxymethyl-4β-methyl-5α-cholesta-8,24-dien-3β-ol can be found in a number of food items such as epazote, italian sweet red pepper, pepper (c. annuum), and sweet cherry, which makes 4α-hydroxymethyl-4β-methyl-5α-cholesta-8,24-dien-3β-ol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
