Common NameQuinic acid
DescriptionQuinic acid, also known as quinate or chinate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as quinic acids and derivatives. Quinic acids and derivatives are compounds containing a quinic acid moiety (or a derivative thereof), which is a cyclitol made up of a cyclohexane ring that bears four hydroxyl groups at positions 1,3.4, and 5, as well as a carboxylic acid at position 1. It is also a cyclitol, a cyclic polyol. Quinic acid is a sugar acid. Quinic acid is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). More specifically, quinic acid is a crystalline acid obtained from cinchona bark, coffee beans, tobacco leaves, carrot leaves, apples, peaches, pears, plums, vegetables etc. Quinic acid is implicated in the perceived acidity of coffee. Quinic acid can also be made synthetically by hydrolysis of chlorogenic acid.
