Metabolite Identification
Common NameBenzyl ethyl ether
DescriptionBenzyl ethyl ether belongs to the class of organic compounds known as benzylethers. These are aromatic ethers with the general formula ROCR' (R = alkyl, aryl; R'=benzene). Benzyl ethyl ether is a fruity, pineapple, and powerful tasting compound. Benzyl ethyl ether has been detected, but not quantified in, cocoa and cocoa products and cocoa beans (Theobroma cacao). This could make benzyl ethyl ether a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Benzyl ethyl ether.
