Definition
4-methylthiobutyldesulfoglucosinolate is a member of the class of compounds known as thioglycosides. Thioglycosides are glycoside in which a sugar group is bonded through one carbon to another group via a S-glycosidic bond. 4-methylthiobutyldesulfoglucosinolate is slightly soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). 4-methylthiobutyldesulfoglucosinolate can be found in a number of food items such as grapefruit/pummelo hybrid, winged bean, european cranberry, and eggplant, which makes 4-methylthiobutyldesulfoglucosinolate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Belongs to the class of organic compounds known as thioglycosides. These are glycoside in which a sugar group is bonded through one carbon to another group via a S-glycosidic bond.
