Definition
7-methylthioheptyl glucosinolate is a member of the class of compounds known as alkylglucosinolates. Alkylglucosinolates are organic compounds containing a glucosinolate moiety that carries an alkyl chain. 7-methylthioheptyl glucosinolate is slightly soluble (in water) and an extremely strong acidic compound (based on its pKa). 7-methylthioheptyl glucosinolate can be found in a number of food items such as macadamia nut (m. tetraphylla), annual wild rice, herbs and spices, and horseradish tree, which makes 7-methylthioheptyl glucosinolate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alkylglucosinolates. These are organic compounds containing a glucosinolate moiety that carries an alkyl chain.
