Metabolite Identification
Common NameHexyl propionate
DescriptionHexyl propionate belongs to the class of organic compounds known as carboxylic acid esters. These are carboxylic acid derivatives in which the carbon atom from the carbonyl group is attached to an alkyl or an aryl moiety through an oxygen atom (forming an ester group). Hexyl propionate is a fruity, green, and melon tasting compound. Hexyl propionate has been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as apples (Malus pumila), asian pears (Pyrus pyrifolia), and sweet cherries (Prunus avium). This could make hexyl propionate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Hexyl propionate 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 very few articles have been published on Hexyl propionate.
