Metabolite Identification
Common NameSulcatone
DescriptionSulcatone, also known as methylheptenone or fema 2707, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as ketones. These are organic compounds in which a carbonyl group is bonded to two carbon atoms R2C=O (neither R may be a hydrogen atom). Ketones that have one or more alpha-hydrogen atoms undergo keto-enol tautomerization, the tautomer being an enol. Thus, sulcatone is considered to be an oxygenated hydrocarbon lipid molecule. Sulcatone exists as a solid, very hydrophobic, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral molecule. Sulcatone exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans. Sulcatone has been found to be associated with several diseases known as ulcerative colitis and crohn's disease; also sulcatone has been linked to the inborn metabolic disorders including celiac disease.
