Metabolite Identification
Common NameIsopentanol
DescriptionIsopentanol, also known as isopentyl alcohol or 3-methylbutanol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as primary alcohols. Primary alcohols are compounds comprising the primary alcohol functional group, with the general structure RCOH (R=alkyl, aryl). Thus, isopentanol is considered to be a fatty alcohol. Isopentanol exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to plants to humans. Isopentanol is an alcoholic, banana, and burnt tasting compound. Isopentanol is found, on average, in the highest concentration within a few different foods, such as red wine, grape wine, and white wine and in a lower concentration in beer and milk (cow). Isopentanol has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as soursops (Annona muricata), flaxseeds (Linum usitatissimum), greenthread teas (Thelesperma), asparagus (Asparagus officinalis), and prairie turnips (Pediomelum esculentum). This could make isopentanol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Isopentanol is a primary metabolite. Primary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically essential metabolites. They are directly involved in an organism’s growth, development or reproduction. Isopentanol, with regard to humans, has been found to be associated with the diseases such as ulcerative colitis; isopentanol has also been linked to the inborn metabolic disorder celiac disease. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Isopentanol.
