Metabolite Identification
Common NameBenzylideneacetone
DescriptionBenzylideneacetone, also known as trans-benzalacetone, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as styrenes. These are organic compounds containing an ethenylbenzene moiety. Benzylideneacetone is a sweet, almond, and anise tasting compound. Benzylideneacetone is a secondary metabolite. Secondary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically non-essential metabolites that may serve a role as defense or signalling molecules. In some cases they are simply molecules that arise from the incomplete metabolism of other secondary metabolites. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Benzylideneacetone.
