Definition
8-methylthiooctyldesulfoglucosinolate is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). 8-methylthiooctyldesulfoglucosinolate can be found in a number of food items such as hedge mustard, borage, bog bilberry, and garden onion (variety), which makes 8-methylthiooctyldesulfoglucosinolate 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.
